Overall Satisfaction with Cision Communications Cloud

Our whole Media Relations Department resorts to Cision [Communications Cloud] to distribute our global press releases.
  • Provides follow up to the press release distribution
  • Provides guidance and close monitoring prior, during, and after distribution
  • Broad reach and effective targeting of press releases
  • A more friendly interface so the company could see past press releases and metrics related to them
  • A local, bilingual support staff
  • It [has] allowed our news to be more visible to investors [who] are not necessarily connected to our business.
  • [It has provided] an organized approach towards press release distribution.
  • [It] makes sure [to leave] a global, consolidated company to do the heavy lifting.
Sometimes, our Brazil contracted PR firm resorts to Communique-se mailing distribution list to tap Brazilian journalists. Sometimes, the list is a bit outdated, but most times they get it right.

Yes

Did Cision Communications Cloud live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Cision Communications Cloud go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Cision Communications Cloud again?

Yes

It looks more appropriate when the company is about to distribute a global press release with [a] wide range in countries where Cision [Communications Cloud] is more present. We tend to do it less for local releases when we want to target [fewer] reporters - in this case, we resort to our local outsourced PR company that has its own mailing list.
