The journalist database is always up to date, so I don’t waste time worrying if I’m contacting the right people. Building lists is quick, and sending to multiple audiences couldn’t be simpler. I also find the velocity grading really useful. Being able to see open rates right away gives me a clear picture of what’s working and helps me judge the impact of each release. Overall, it’s reliable, time-saving and takes a lot of the stress out of PR. > > **Cons**: There’s very little I dislike. If I could add one feature, it would be a conversion score showing which outlets actually picked up and published a release. The velocity grading already helps with open rates, but knowing exactly where stories land would make the platform even stronger. > > My overall experience with MediaHQ has been really positive. The platform is easy to use, reliable and makes a big difference in how I manage press releases day to day. Having access to an up-to-date journalist database saves so much time, and the tools for building lists and sending to multiple audiences are straightforward and efficient. I also appreciate the insights, like velocity grading, which give me instant feedback on performance. On top of that, the customer support has been excellent — quick to respond and genuinely helpful when I’ve had questions, like figuring out the best times to send releases. Since using their advice, I’ve seen more of my stories picked up and published, which is the result that matters most. Altogether, MediaHQ combines strong features with great support, and it’s become an invaluable part of my communications work. ----- ### "Media HQ review" — 4.0/5 > **Owen** | *May 28, 2025* | Utilities | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: The ease with which we are able to prepare and distribute media releases and review their reach etc. > > **Cons**: Search function can seem overly wide-ranging at times, making it difficult to focus in on the areas/contacts you want. (However, this could be due to my own use of it rather than the search function itself\!) > > Media HQ is very easy to use, accessible and a very useful tool to help us with our communications output. ----- ### "MediaHQ: Pros and a few Cons" — 5.0/5 > **Maryna** | *October 7, 2025* | Public Relations & Communications | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Without any exaggeration, I can’t imagine doing PR without MediaHQ today. It has completely removed the stress of circulating press releases and managing journalist communications. In my opinion, MediaHQ’s strongest features are: An intuitive interface An excellent contact database and search function Smart AI tools (especially the headline assistant\!) And I absolutely love the browser extension — plus, your team’s quick support with it is always fantastic. > > **Cons**: I had to think hard to come up with anything I’d like to see improved: The need to manually update contacts — automated updates would be fantastic. Some contacts are outdated or duplicated, and researching individual journalists can be quite time-consuming. Sometimes when editing press releases directly in MediaHQ, the formatting can get distorted — for example, text spacing or symbols may appear incorrectly. And it would be amazing if the platform could show which outlets have published a release. Thank you\! > > It helps to circulate a press release via hundreds of grouped/listed contacts at once, also, Media HG gives an opportunity to share media contacts with colleagues and edit them together, as well as the lists of outlets. ----- ### "Brilliant PR Software" — 5.0/5 > **Barry** | *November 12, 2025* | Airlines/Aviation | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: A seamless software with a great listing of media contacts across multiple sectors in Ireland. Very helpful when it comes to pitching stories. > > **Cons**: The formatting on MediaHQ can be complex, especially when copying and pasting over from a MS Word document. Edits to formatting on MediaHQ are required to ensure that the desired look and feel to the press release. > > A really easy, pleasant software to use which makes press release distribution seamless and hassle free. ----- Page: 1 / 5\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ca/software/2069187/mediahq?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ca/software/2069187/mediahq) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | ----- ## Structured Data
