How to choose
What coverage do I need to monitor?
Start with the coverage sources and media database size, then check whether the tool monitors media, social channels or both.
If you need to track traditional coverage and social mentions together, compare the media monitoring and social monitoring fields separately.
How does it distribute press releases?
Compare release distribution details to the outlets and regions your announcements need to reach. The board includes release distribution as a comparison point.
What reports can I export?
Check report exports before choosing if you need to share coverage results with colleagues or clients. Compare the available export options with the reports you prepare.
Which platforms does the software support?
Check that the tool runs where you work, such as the web, a phone app, an extension or a self-hosted setup. Some tools also offer an API, a way for other software to connect to them.
Can I try it before paying?
Compare free plans, free trials and starting prices. A free plan is different from a time-limited trial, and some vendors provide pricing on request.

How do I compare PR software?

Is there free PR software?
The board marks whether a tool has a free plan or trial. Check those marks separately: a trial is time-limited, while a free plan is not described as a trial.
Can PR software track social media?
Social monitoring is one of the board's comparison fields. Check each tool's details to see whether its social coverage fits your needs.
What does a PR software API mean?
An API lets other software connect to a tool. The board marks public API availability; check whether that connection is useful for your workflow.
