Increase Visibility for Press Releases **Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Sylvia L. | Engagement Delivery Manager, Information Technology and Services, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 07, 2022 **What do you like best about ABNewswire?** The analytics are decent. Once you are able to publish your article you can easily pitch the article to local news sites. **What do you dislike about ABNewswire?** The price difference between one release was around $40 but with the unlimited releases is $100 for a month, which is a bit expensive. **Recommendations to others considering ABNewswire:** It is not the best newswire site. I would highly suggest finding another alternative. However, if you decide to go with this site, purchase the unlimited package. **What problems is ABNewswire solving and how is that benefiting you?** We are publishing news articles online to increase distribution. ### 2. A life saver, and affordable. **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Yacine H. | Vice President - Client Relations, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 04, 2019 **What do you like best about ABNewswire?** A super powerful newswire service, with a full report and a friendly team. It also provides a whitelabel service, so we were able to publish news from our advertiser account, and not abnewswire. This made it possible to use their report for our customers, as it is quite well done. Also after publishing an article on their network, it becomes a lot easier to pitch it to local news, as they can look it up online and see the presence. Also includes you in google news for a couple of days. **What do you dislike about ABNewswire?** The pricing style is a bit strange : $40 for one release, but $100 for unlimited releases for a month. I guess its a strategy but a weekly price would probably get them much more business. You can upload only one article, which will be copy pasted all over their network. I'd rather be able to upload 4-5 versions that rotate, so its not that spammy. **Recommendations to others considering ABNewswire:** It's actually a really good service, and no other newswire really compared. You get what you pay for so don't over expect, but it does the job. **What problems is ABNewswire solving and how is that benefiting you?** We needed a way to publish news online in a fast and efficient manner before pitching them to local newspapers. Abnewswire offered an affordable solution to that problem and helped us get into major newspapers in our region. ### 3. Completely useless, please do not put your money into this service. **Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Writing and Editing | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 04, 2019 **What do you like best about ABNewswire?** Absolutely nothing.. the site is full of errors and you will never get any support to deal with any issues there might rise. **What do you dislike about ABNewswire?** The service is awful.. If you buy higher packages.. they will change your submitted emails to their personal ones with every PR your publish, they will redirect you and your clients to their pricing site.. The site does not have any support.. I have had 4 different request in 4 weeks, none of these have been ever responded.. I strongly advise not to use this service. They modify and change the PR's to create extent and do everything to contact your clients so that they could cut you off as a middleman, by replacing the customers personal details. **Recommendations to others considering ABNewswire:** Try to find any other alternatives to this. **What problems is ABNewswire solving and how is that benefiting you?** There is no benefits, terrible service. ### 4. AB NewsWire for Distribution **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 12, 2017 **What do you like best about ABNewswire?** I love the analytics the AB NewsWire provides! They are easy to understand and make it easy to analyze your work. Their customer service team has been amazing in helping make sure we are receiving the most out of our releases. **What do you dislike about ABNewswire?** Besides the price, I have yet to find anything I didn’t like! **Recommendations to others considering ABNewswire:** Purchase the packages to save money and use the support team, they are of great help! **What problems is ABNewswire solving and how is that benefiting you?** Helps maximize distribution efforts and provides detail analytics on how well a release was received. ## ABNewswire Discussions - [What is ABNewswire used for?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/what-is-abnewswire-used-for) - [View ABNewswire pricing details and edition comparison](https://www.g2.com/products/abnewswire/reviews?section=pricing&secure%5Bexpires_at%5D=2026-05-25+08%3A05%3A16+-0500&secure%5Bsession_id%5D=f724391e-a4ce-436c-a5f0-1b7f64421a17&secure%5Btoken%5D=ffbffa96617eeb2c1884a470a32045af3fa0c00a0b86ac78af2695d3b00646dc&format=llm_user) ## Top ABNewswire Alternatives - [Thinkific](https://www.g2.com/products/thinkific/reviews) - 4.5/5.0 (380 reviews) - [Google Trends](https://www.g2.com/products/google-trends/reviews) - 4.6/5.0 (261 reviews) - [Retention.com](https://www.g2.com/products/retention-com/reviews) - 4.5/5.0 (121 reviews)
