PR and media
Cision
Media monitoring, a journalist database and outreach, and press release distribution.
Cision sells CisionOne, a platform for PR and communications teams covering media monitoring, analytics, reporting, journalist outreach and social listening. Press release distribution runs through PR Newswire, a separate Cision product line. Cision has owned Brandwatch since June 2021.
Where it shines
- Combines monitoring, a journalist database and distribution (PR Newswire) under one owner.
- Publishes a security statement based on the NIST Cybersecurity Framework.
Check before signing
- No published prices.
- Its security statement attributes the SOC 2 Type II audit to its data centres rather than to Cision itself.
- Coverage figures differ between its own pages.
