### "A Great Alternative To Email Blast Systems "

May 16, 2021

4.0

The team is supportive and helpful and customer service is top notch.

Pros

I had been sending out press releases for years using Constant Contact and iContact but was introduced to Prezly by a business associate. I think it is a great option to manage all PR contacts on multiple lists, tag them by media type or client, set up newsrooms, add in photography and blast out. You can also track who is opening your releases and pitches.

Cons

Some of the features don’t really work like seeing who is clicking through to a client website or who has opened pitches but I am sure they are working on that.

Customer support was horrible and just too many software issues like losing documents you spent hours working on. That NEVER happens with Prezly!

### "Indespensible tool for our Game Press Releases"

October 10, 2024

5.0

The support team has always been kind and swift with replies. When given feedback on the tool, they almost always get to work with implementing it as soon as possible and using Prezly makes my life a lot easier.

Pros

\- Much less likely to end up in spam than other mailing tools - great Open/click rate tracking - smart way to deal with bounced contacts (tries it, if success: counts, if not: not counted towards the open/click) - their Press page works great (with multilingual toggle and good overview of previous press releases) - they just added a new update that automatically fills in a ton of stuff when adding new contacts, based on the domain (makes it much easier and saves me time) - easy to filter among contacts

Cons

Not a lot of freedom in formatting press releases (eg: align left on an image) there are some formatting steps that just work better in Mailchimp. there is a coverage logging tool, but it requires too many manual inputs. would have been nice if contact person, publishing date etc were all filled in automatically.

Alternatives considered

Reason for choosing Prezly

much less likely to end up in spam, better press portal

### "Prezly is the easiest solution to manage press and bloggers data"

August 19, 2015

3.0

For now on, I'm only using Prezly as a database (not as a way to send press releases). Why is it so? Because I still miss some functionalities to be able to do so. We're working as a team on different client, and sometimes, I'd like my colleagues to have a look at the list of journalists/bloggers I selected. With Prezly, it is not possible to save a list, make comments and tracked adaptations. I also miss a place to put the unique visitors/month for a blog (not ideal to use the comments sections). Anyway, Prezly is really easy to use! Everything is logical and well designed.

Thank you for the feedback Déborah. Excellent suggestion for the lists. This is in the pipeline. Soon you'll also be able to see extra info for the outlet domains.

October 21, 2024

Pretty good so far; we renewed for a 2nd year.

Pros

Great support team, quick to react and have solved a number of problems in a timely fashion.

Cons

Sometimes the contacts don't display which magazine they are connected with and I need this when selecting titles for distribution.

We cancelled our contract because we were mis sold and the system wasn't what we were told it would be.

### "Prezly is a PR solution from novice to pro."

May 12, 2021

4.0

Pros

Being able to add stories is one thing, but to add video or pictures to your story is a game changer.

Cons

I’m all about organization. That means utilizing categories to help flow is necessary, but categories are not available on the first tier level plan of newsrooms. Instead I have to come up with other ways to make categories within a program that makes them. It adds time to the process.

Reason for choosing Prezly

Price and no hassle Sales. Additionally I love the fact that they made their services available to freelancers or those who cannot necessarily afford it the very expensive solutions that are out there. This sets Prezly apart by being able to offer a solution to anyone who needs one. I also love how they highlight those who came up for uses of Prezly outside the original scope. For example, I think utilizing Prezley for a portfolio solution or a intranet platform is brilliant. Thanks for sharing that and kudos to you, Prezly.

December 4, 2025

5.0

It is a platform that is userfriendly and it bundels all the needed information that we have established over the years regarding press contact.

Pros

You can always count on the support team. They are very helpful and always available to find a solution.

Cons

The new layout takes time to adapt. I guess that is a matter of habbits. We were used for so long to work in the same way, and now we have to adapt to the new layout.

### "Good product for email marketing, pitching and for media professionals"

November 12, 2024

5.0

It's great and easy to wrap your head around. Support staff is also very efficient and responsive.

Pros

It's user-friendly, easy to get around and navigate, as well as to train people to use even if they are new to the platform

Cons

lack of customisation in layout for the newsroom, compared to something like the newsroom offerings on Releasd, which offers more brand-specific customisation, a coverage reporting template would also be really helpful

It is my all-in-one tool for my daily work.Being in sync with my whole team, we rely a lot on prezly to share contacts and communications.It definitely makes work much easier.

Pros

Prezly makes my communications work easier. I love their story editor because I can customize it for each of the brands I work with, plus we get constant updates that improve the quality of the work.

Cons

Some contacts who have requested to stop receiving emails continue to receive them. Maybe I would just ask them to adjust that.

Prezly provides everything a PR professional requires from a media campaign distribution standpoint. They have done their research and have identified every tool necessary to promote your brand. The way organizations conduct PR today is so different than what it was even just a few years ago - Prezly is constantly developing features and ideas to reflect that change in the industry. Most importantly, Prezly has one of the best customer services out there as they are quick and genuinely care. I work in North America and there has never been an issue with this Belgium-based company.

July 30, 2015

4.0

I've been working with Prezly for over a year now and it's a very user friendly tool, easy to explain to new colleagues or interns. For my team it's helpful to have our contacts stored in one list that all of us can rely on. I especially like the mailing reports to see which journalists are interested and to learn how successfull the pitch is . You can simply add images, video content and links to the online press release. Although for our products (books), we'd like to see the clean and basic layout somewhat more personalised.

Quick to set up and easy to use, Prezly is the tool PR pros need to convert their traditional press releases into advanced multimedia news releases. Video content, downloadable image galleries, and social media sharing are vital to effectively engage with our target public nowadays. The email campaign reports and analysis provided by Prezly's platform further help to successfully manage media relations.

Prezly has made PR life a lot easier for us. All the information you need is now centralized in one program, instead of scattered across various excel sheets, word documents etc. Sending campaigns is a simple task, and with Prezly it's easy to document the different campaigs you've send before. In short, a recommendable program.
