"Gets the job done"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Business Wire?

If you're looking to distribute full-text press releases to thousands of news media, bloggers, social outlets and more, it does a great job -- quickly and efficiently sending out the release in proper formatting to be published by the outlet and read by their audience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Business Wire?

After paying for a multi-(press)-release package with Business Wire, which is arguably one of the higher cost services that perform this for marketing teams, we saw very poor quality results in terms of the outlets that picked up the news release. One can say that it always depends on the quality of the news, and the industry, but for the cost, we didn't see the results we were hoping for / expecting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great service for a wide reach"

5/5

What do you like best about Business Wire?

The software is easy to use and very user friendly, they list out each and every publication you can expect to target, the staff and technicians are extremely helpful, and the service is very reliable. Follow-up and reporting after the release has been sent is also very useful. The social feature is a great add on as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Business Wire?

It can be slightly expensive, but at the same time you get a lot for what you pay for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Use it if you want the most bang for your buck Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Business Wire solving and how is that benefiting you?
