After years of using the business's previous PR media outreach and monitoring platform, we started looking into other solutions that would work better for our organisation. Agilty fit the bill as a platform that we could monitor our own coverage, and easily set up searches to monitor coverage from other key brands from our industry. It took some time to master the platform, but now that we are completely set up it has been easy to send email distributions, monitor coverage and key trends, and find key media contacts from our niche industry.

This is probably one of the easiest services that you'll use. Plus, they keep building up the website with more features and more services so you really get more than what you would expect.

Using Muck Rack has honestly changed the way I handle media outreach, but it wasn't love at first click, it was more like surprised appreciation. At first, the dashboard felt a bit overwhelming, but once I started using it regularly, it became obvious how much it streamlined my workflow compared to the patchwork of spreadsheets and random lists I used before. Instead of guessing where journalists are active or what they care about, Muck Rack gave me actual signals, and that shifted my strategy from scattershot to targeted.

When I first started using Prezly, I was mostly just relieved to have one place to manage press contacts, stories, and releases without juggling a dozen spreadsheets and random email drafts. Over time, it's become less of a niche to have and more of a core part of how I stay organized in PR. It doesn't magically make coverage happen, but it does remove a lot of the friction that used to make my job feel like herding cats, and trust me, anything that reduces that chaos feels like a win.
