Reasons teams compare Notified
- IR in the bundle. A private company that needs only PR can pay for investor relations products it never uses.
- Wide price range. The Vendr range runs from $5,670 to $55,624, so two quotes for “Notified” can be very different purchases.
- Per-release options exist. A team that sends a few releases a year can pay per release.
Where Debriefing fits, and where it does not
Debriefing watches the competitors you choose. It reads their pricing pages, changelogs, careers pages and news, and sends a written brief with the evidence linked. It costs from $80 a month, billed monthly, and the first brief is free.
Debriefing does not replace a journalist database, press release distribution or a clipping archive. If Notified does those jobs for you, keep a tool from the table above for them.
Where Notified is better
Notified serves investor relations as well as PR. A public company that runs earnings events and needs PR distribution can buy both from one vendor. The tools in the table above cover PR jobs only.
Before you switch
- Split the quote into PR, IR and events lines.
- Count the press releases you sent in the last 12 months. EIN Presswire’s 15-release pack costs $999.
- Read the renewal clause in your order form and note the notice date.
