What do you like best about PR Underground?

As the Sr. VP of Public Relations for a busy digital marketing agency that's responsible for multiple press releases each year, we've tried many distribution services. Without fail, we continue to go back to and recommend PR Underground.

The intuitive platform is easy to use, the prices are beyond competitive, and the customer service is fast and efficient. Additionally, the pickup reports PRU generates are appreciated by our clients and we find the dashboard and newsrooms helpful when comparing all of the press release data that we've accumulated over the years. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PR Underground?

I don't really have any negative things to say about PR Underground. As an east coast agency, there have been a few times where I forgot that the default press release time is Pacific Timezone, but it is clearly marked so that's more on us. The customer service has always been super helpful and timely in fixing any issues we've had, which generally stem from user error, not the PR Underground team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PR Underground solving and how is that benefiting you?

PR Underground solves the problem of quickly and easily publishing press releases that consistently get picked up by the major news distribution sites. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about PR Underground?

PR Underground has been a cost-effective method for our growing business to get our news releases out. The service is easy to use, and their distribution is more than sufficient for our needs. I appreciate that they maintain a newsroom for us with all of our historical press releases in one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PR Underground?

The only drawback I can think of is that the time you request for your release to go out is more like an approximation than an exact release time. It would be nice to know exactly when the release is going out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PR Underground solving and how is that benefiting you?

PR Underground is helping us to get media attention for our company's press releases. The product also provides us with good SEO results due to their broad distribution of our news. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
