## Reviews

### "Easy to use, intuitive platfrom" — 5.0/5

> **Mel** | *20 April 2026* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The platform is really easy to use and navigate. We mainly use it to schedule our press releases to send outside of our normal work hours, but the database of journalists etc has also been very useful. The analytics provided really help us with analysing our performance.
The support team behind the scenes have always been super helpful too :)
> 
> **Cons**: 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. It hasn't caused us any major problems though

### "Media HQ review - Abbey Theatre press office" — 4.0/5

> **Mia** | *12 March 2026* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The customer support is very fast and helpful, always ready to help on any queries I have no matter how big or small. I also like how varied the media contacts database is and that I have access to international news desks and journos as well as Irish ones. It makes building lists easy.
> 
> **Cons**: The searchability on the media containers database is sometimes poor and glitchy. I.e. I will search a name in the search bar and it won’t show up immediately, but then I search it a different day or via the browser extension on an article the journalist has written and it’ll show up. 

Also, sometimes the formatting when drafting press releases is tricky especially when I copy over from Microsoft word or other docs. The fonts will appear differently or spacing is slightly off, etc.
> 
> Overall very happy with the service\! Definitely room for improvement on a few technical things (see above) but based on the recent database training I received it seems MediaHQ are actively working on improving the service and ‘story cycle’ and are very receptive to feedback from users.

### "Great tool" — 5.0/5

> **Diana** | *20 January 2026* | Government Relations | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's a well-organised, practical tool with great user interface. Use options are clear on homepage and there is quick access to most features in less than 3 clicks.
> 
> **Cons**: A bit difficult at first to input own contacts in a quick way. Also, I would like to see urls created for specific labels and lists for quick access and easier sharing.
> 
> Very good - great tool and really useful, well-structured training. I got all my questions answered during training and follow-up was comprehensive.

### "Media HQ for press release distribution" — 4.0/5

> **Joe** | *22 March 2026* | Higher Education | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The media database is constantly kept up to date, and the depth of contacts is impressive. I also like the feed on the dashboard keeping users up to date on ongoing events. The platform is very intuitive and easy to use.
> 
> **Cons**: I'd like to be able to add individual contacts to the recipients of a release, not just my lists but this is a minor point, overall it's very good and user friendly.
> 
> Overall very positive,  the breadth and depth of its contact list is very impressive and makes issuing releases easier.

### "MediaHQ for all your PR needs" — 4.0/5

> **Teresa** | *9 March 2026* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: A simple system to use, information at your fingertips, all your media contacts in one place, curated contact lists, and instant results of your releases.
> 
> **Cons**: No cons to report. Media HQ is always working on ways to improve the user's experience, so the system is not a static programme.
> 
> Great product to reach all your media contacts \& communicate your message. Support is available should you need assistance.
