Overall Satisfaction with Newswire

We use Newswire to distribute press releases whenever our clients have newsworthy moments that we want to share with the public. I then pitch the press release link to the press to further the announcement's visibility, but Newswire's great SEO means that some reporters and viewers will find the announcement organically. Perhaps most importantly is the excellent reporting function that Newswire provides, which makes it easy for me and my team to share a results overview with our clients on the reach and penetration of each announcement. Lastly, let's talk about price. Newswire might be a tad bit more expensive than the basic distribution services, but you get a lot more functionality, SEO, and reporting capabilities. I particularly like the AP integration and some of the other useful additions. You get what you pay for, but in this case, I think Newswire's value is higher than its price point.
  • Analytics
  • SEO
  • Price
  • Customer Service
  • More integrations with media outlets
  • Price increase
  • Not a lot of cons
  • More repeat clients
  • Greater press coverage
  • More insightful data
  • Greater customer brand awareness
I believe that Newswire has the easiest-to-use UX in its sector. Legacy services are often clunky and difficult to Navigate. Newswire has a Google Docs-type of simplicity for users which makes it easy to get the job done.

I believe that Newswire is best suited to a startup business that is looking to take its media relations and marketing to the next step. If you just want to put a basic press release out there for the sake of doing it, there are cheaper options that'll accomplish that goal. However, if you want people to actually read your press release and find it, you need a more robust platform like Newswire which has greater SEO, greater analytics functions, and distribution channels that'll reach the press.
