GlobeNewswire Pros and Cons

GlobeNewswire and the Notified platform have made it very easy & flexible to offer Press Release services to our clients, without any strings attached. The flexibility has allowed us to use press releases when it makes sense, rather than feeling like we need to use a subscription for the sake of not wasting a month.

I can't think of too many. It would be nice to have more robust analytics, and the ability to see what other outlets / publishers choose to basically "repost" the GlobeNewswire distribution word for word. If it also could tell us who wrote about the press release with a dofollow backlink to the client website, it'd be a goldmine. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We have used GlobeNewswire several times to publish press releases for our company. It is a really quick way to get releases out to a broad network of media channels. I have been most impressed with how quickly and helpful their staff has been in responding to either questions we have had or when we submit a press release how quickly they have turned it around for publication. In my experience, it is usually a matter of minutes to get things formatted and loaded into their system, have us approve it and then have it hit the wires. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The user interface is not always straightforward. I would like it if it were a little more user friendly and easy to navigate. However, once I figure things out, things have always worked smoothly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The improvements to the platform are noticable and I have helped several clients setup accounts in the recent years. The customer support team have been helpful in clarifying best reach options. There is a very broad database of press contacts which is obviously useful. Implementation of AI tools has started and I expect to see a evolution in this direction.

There was some confusion in the communications realted to changes in branding and it created some uncertainty about the future service. This was addressed and well handled. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have been impressed with the customer service thus far. I submitted a press release late one evening going into the weekend and it needed to be posted Monday morning. I was worried with it being the weekend they may not have time to review it and get any needed changes done before then. I was pleased that they actually called me in the evening, on a weekend and got it taken care of. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While the software is not overly difficult, its not the most user friendly program. It is navigatable and easy enough to figure out. Also im sure support would be happy to help with any confusion. I also dont have other programs to compare this to, so not saying anything in comparison to competitors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really enjoy how user-friendly GlobeNewswire is! The software is easy to use and readily provides options on how to amplify a release to garner even more visibility. I also appreciate how setting up a release is an easy process that only requires a few steps, but also ensures that all details are accounted for.

Additionally, I am always in awe of how your team goes above and beyond to help with any of my needs. Firstly, I appreciate how quickly your team contacts me to prepare for the distribution of a release. It is also rewarding to know that your representatives will always go over details prior to submission and are happy to make adjustments if needed. I'm especially grateful for our contact Audrey Cordell! She is always eager to help and quick to respond to any of my inquires. She's a pleasure to work with and i'm so glad I get to connect with her on a regular basis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There isn't anything I really dislike about GlobeNewswire. If I had to select an area of imporvement, it may be just to continue adding to your distribution circuits. You already have plenty of variety, but it is always beneficial to continue adding to the database. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The online system is great and is easy to use as it walks you through each step. The ability to have the release reviewed by a professional is a plus! They've caught a couple of errors in the past and have made some suggested sentence changes to make the release better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There's been a few changes in "owners" of GN... keeping track of that and the websites has been interesting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I appreciate Global News Wire’s ability to reach a broad media list while allowing me to create specific, targeted lists. The support team’s expertise in reviewing content and optimizing settings ensures that my press releases achieve maximum impact. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One downside is the extensive setup and numerous settings required to establish a proper foundation for press releases. Without careful preparation, the reach may not be as effective as expected. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Full service, easy-to-use, great service Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cision has other services some may want. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The dashboard is user friendly and easy to navigate Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The pricing seems ot be a bit off tune. One PR should be half the price as sometime companoes look for one cost cautious release. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I researched other wire distribution networks and found that GlobeNewswire has the farthest reach for news. My press releases go to more media outlets versus the other wire services. Plus, GlobeNewsWire offers bundled pricing for my clients who issue lots of press releases. These bundles are very cost-effective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I am not sure where the distributions go - such as what states are covered in the Southeast region distribution? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
