Still worth the spend, but a challenge\! > > The team have been fantastic in the onboarding process and so far we've had four bites on our press releases within just a couple of months of use. ----- ### "Excellent system and well maintained database of contacts" — 4.0/5 > **Thomas** | *5 November 2024* | Higher Education | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: A detailed, and well maintained database of media contacts and specialist lists already created that can be used right away. > > **Cons**: Having to manually update media lists every day, which isn't workable sometimes. Would be great if changes could be automatically made. > > Excellent -- it's reliable and easy to use, and I feel it gets press releases and pitches to the vast majority of appropriate media targets without my having to spend ages searching for contacts myself. ----- ### "Media HQ review" — 4.0/5 > **Owen** | *28 May 2025* | Utilities | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: The ease with which we are able to prepare and distribute media releases and review their reach etc. > > **Cons**: Search function can seem overly wide-ranging at times, making it difficult to focus in on the areas/contacts you want. (However, this could be due to my own use of it rather than the search function itself\!) > > Media HQ is very easy to use, accessible and a very useful tool to help us with our communications output. ----- ### "MediaHQ: Pros and a few Cons" — 5.0/5 > **Maryna** | *7 October 2025* | Public Relations & Communications | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Without any exaggeration, I can’t imagine doing PR without MediaHQ today. It has completely removed the stress of circulating press releases and managing journalist communications. In my opinion, MediaHQ’s strongest features are: An intuitive interface An excellent contact database and search function Smart AI tools (especially the headline assistant\!) And I absolutely love the browser extension — plus, your team’s quick support with it is always fantastic. > > **Cons**: I had to think hard to come up with anything I’d like to see improved: The need to manually update contacts — automated updates would be fantastic. Some contacts are outdated or duplicated, and researching individual journalists can be quite time-consuming. Sometimes when editing press releases directly in MediaHQ, the formatting can get distorted — for example, text spacing or symbols may appear incorrectly. And it would be amazing if the platform could show which outlets have published a release. Thank you\! > > 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. ----- ### "Stress-Free Media Outreach" — 5.0/5 > **John** | *19 November 2025* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The fact the media lists are so extensive and updated regularly. This removes the stress of having to find journalists and media contacts yourself. Also the > > **Cons**: The News Feed section could featured more insights and case studies on releases that have performed well. > > From the product to the support my overall my experience with MediaHQ has been excellent. Getting media attention has always been a challenge for me working in the charity sector, but Headline Ninja has significantly improved the pickup rate of our press releases. This is a game changer in the PR space. ----- Page: 1 / 4\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.com.au/software/2069187/mediahq?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.com.au/software/2069187/mediahq) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | ----- ## Structured Data
