Newswire is a progressive step in the right direction
I am very pleased at the rapid response from Customer Service and their ability and patience to assist me, even if it's last minute.
Pros
I am able to access it whenever I want. I can manipulate it without going through a "representative". It's hands-on and self-explanatory.
Cons
There are some features I wish were more user-friendly, such as returning to the previous page w/o having to go back through the browser.
Reasons for Choosing Newswire
Better control of marketing materials, better monitoring systems in place, better customer service and communication, more media outlets offered and the price point was right for a small start-up company.
Reasons for Switching to Newswire
Business Wire was too regimental, expensive and had little options for the price point.

Save your money and run a targeted ad.
Realized absolutely NO benefits from using a press release service. Incredibly disappointing.
Pros
I have nothing against Newswire. They delivered as promised. They posted where they said they would, their website was easy to navigate, and the overall experience was smooth and professional. But for the cost, I expected *some* results. The only responses I received to our press release were from other people trying to sell me on their press release service, or websites offering to get my company exposure on their blog for a substantial fee. Overall, using this service was a complete waste of time for our product. I wish I'd run targeted ads to potential customers with the money instead. Lesson learned. I will never use a press release service again.
Cons
See above. No need to type it all again.

Hi Stephanie, Thank you for your feedback. It's unfortunate to hear that your press release campaign did not yield the results you had expected. I do see there was a good amount of views and some social media shares to your PR however ultimately I do understand if you were measuring ROI thru another metric. If ever you'd like to considering trying our service out again, I'd like to discuss with you, your expectations of the campaign so we can strategize on the best options for your campaign next time. If you have any other questions or would like to try us out again, please do not hesitate to contact me, patrick@newswire.com. Thank you!

Easy to use and HUGE database which is frequently updated
Pros
I loved the database and search features. We could tailor lists to pres release subject matter. It was also easy to use with great customer service. Organizing multiple campaigns and lists was very easy as well.
Cons
Sometimes there's almost too much data to sort through. But that's a minor issue easily navigated with the search features.
