I like the ability to create and specifically select distribution lists. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Making changes to copy can be very tedious and slow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Cision is constantly updating media contacts nationally. This saves a ton of time & gives you the piece of mind of knowing that when you send out a release, that it is going to the right people & that emails won't bounce back. It makes curating national media lists easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The social media posting aspects need some work. You have to use an image URL & fill out an Excel spreadsheet if you want to schedule posts in bulk. The social media reporting still needs work as well. Cision only records stats on the posts that are scheduled through Cision. Overall, if you work with social media often you will need to purchase another platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Help A Reporter Out (HARO): a very nice option to provide info on one of our products to someone looking for content Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It’s quite an investment for a small conpany Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The ease of finding a new contact within the industry. I also like the new reports they generate showing how the well the campaign did . These have been helpful with knowing who is receiving our emails or who's contact information needs updated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It takes a bit of time to become familiar with the platform and remember where every function is located. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
PR Newswire is a source of many diverse elements which help public relations professionals immerse themselves in the industry. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I think that the website could be more friendly towards new users and young people who are just starting their career. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like that I can create lists based off what account I am working on and its needs. In addition, I love that I can distribute a press release through Cision and see who has opened it, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sometimes the media contacts are not always current, so it can feel tedious to double check and make sure that the contact is still there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It picks up most of the coverage. I can look up different journalists and create lists. Can distribute press releases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Doesn't pick up all the coverage, so then I have to search and pull it in myself. Sometimes the contact info for journalists isn't up-to-date or they don't work at that outlet anymore. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Constant stream of information and ability to manage PRs. Lots of examples of what good PRs look like along with a good bit of info to read through for more education. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
At times, it is tough to streamline, or tailor, the incoming PRs due to the abundance of them! Almost sensory overload until you customize your prefs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
