Overall Satisfaction with Newswire

We use Newswire for larger company announcements which we'd like a formalized press release to link out to when pitching journalists or sharing news with any external stakeholders. It's relatively limited in scope because we don't have many of these announcements, but it has been helpful at times in legitimizing news when sharing it out.
  • Simple to use.
  • Organizes content well.
  • Distribution works.
  • Distribution is somewhat low quality.
  • Marketing and sales is somewhat aggressive.
  • Did help secure actual earned media.
  • Solid SEO.
Very straightforward.
They're all the same, but Newswire connects with our SAAS tool, making it an easy choice.

No

Did implementation of Newswire go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Newswire again?

Yes

Personally, I see no difference between Newswire and other press release services. This one's available with our current PR SAAS solution, there's nothing wrong with it, and pricing is usually somewhat competitive. These days nothing works as well as actual media relations, so Newswire comes in handy for just having a solid link for a press release and getting the SEO on backlinked sites.
