Pros

“I also love how they provide valuable educational materials like eBooks and regularly host free webinars where you can ask questions live and learn how to make the most of all the features.”

Izabela S.

Brand Manager

“We particularly love the Influence Score feature, which helps us quickly filter noise and prioritize interactions with genuinely impactful authors.”

Khasiba A.

Director of Operations

“What I like the least — though it’s really just nitpicking — is the sentiment feature. Since our brand provides medical services, mentions often include words related to health issues that may sound negative, even when the experience with our brand is positive.”

Izabela S.

Brand Manager

Pros

“The platform feels intuitive from the moment you log in, making it simple to build media lists, distribute press releases, and track engagement without any unnecessary complexity.”

Aisling C.

Junior Marketing Exec

“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.”

Maryna D.

Senior Account Executive - Intern

“I also think the ability to create detailed reports could be more along the lines of Meltwaters.”

Kate B.

Media Officer

Cons

“Sentiment analysis accuracy issues, social media data limitations, lack of some channel integrations (TikTok or YouTube Shorts).”

Cezary L.

Senior Social Media Specialist

“I don't see any negative aspects, the only thing which I can think of is the thing that I see the same articles sometimes after some time - as if the algorythm doesn't catch the article comes from the past”

Joanna A.

Marketing Manager

“For us, some features were underused simply because we didn’t have the volume of mentions or the scale to fully exploit them.”

Deborah M.

Managing Director

Cons

“The only negative - and there is really only this from my view point - is that sometimes contacts are not updated quickly enough. But currently there is so much change in media in Ireland with lots of movement that it would be hard to keep up to date.”

Miriam D.

Communications Consultant

“The only issue we've come across is that the notes made via one user account are not available to view when logged in to another user account.”
