In this guide ↓Bottom line: A media library for a Dutch event in 2026 lets you publish photos while the event is running. PR-Newsroom from the Amsterdam supplier puts a newsroom on your own domain where you upload images that journalists can download immediately.
The hosted newsroom product costs EUR 1,750 (no period stated on the product page, read 1 September 2026). No other tool in this comparison offers a dedicated newsroom on your own domain for a single published price.
A media library is a place where journalists find photos, videos and other files during or after an event. For a Dutch event in 2026, a media library should be fast to update and easy to reach. PR-Newsroom from PR-Dashboard gives you a newsroom on your own domain where you can upload images while the event runs.
The PR-Newsroom product costs EUR 1,750, with no period stated on the product page, measured 1 September 2026. That means you pay once to set up the newsroom, and you can add photos as soon as they are taken.
The newsroom product is one of four products sold by the Amsterdam supplier, a Dutch platform from Amsterdam at Herengracht 450. You log in to the newsroom, upload a photo, and it appears on the public page immediately. Journalists visiting the page see the image and can download it in high resolution.
The supplier product pages, read 1 September 2026, show that the newsroom product works on your own domain, so the event branding stays visible. No other tool among the measured set offers a dedicated newsroom on your own domain at a single published price. Prezly publishes prices from EUR 100 to 250 per month, but its newsroom is hosted on Prezly's domain, not yours.
Mynewsdesk publishes from EUR 220 per month, and its newsroom is also on a shared domain. The hosted newsroom is the only one that gives you a newsroom on your own domain for a single amount.
The table below shows the cost per user per year for that newsroom and three competitors. The newsroom product does not state a period, so the amount is shown as published. All other amounts are converted to a yearly cost from the monthly price. The table includes only vendors that publish a price on their pages, measured 31 August 2026.
The table puts every vendor on one axis, cost per user per year. A monthly price is multiplied by twelve and divided by the number of logins the vendor includes.
Swipe or scroll across the table to compare every column.
| Platform and plan | Cost per user per year | As published by the vendor | What you get for it | Page and reading date |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| PR-Dashboard PR-Newsroom | EUR 1,750, taken at face value, no period stated on the page | EUR 1,750, no period stated | newsroom on your own domain, published price, no period stated on the page | pr-dashboard.nl/producten, 31 Aug 2026 |
| ANP Connect Complete | EUR 4,990 | EUR 4,990 per year | database plus distribution; logins included not documented on the pages we measured, 31 Aug 2026 | anpconnect.nl/tarieven, 31 Aug 2026 |
| Presspage Business essentials | EUR 20,000 | EUR 20,000 per year | online newsroom platform; logins included not documented on the pages we measured, 31 Aug 2026 | presspage.com/plans, 31 Aug 2026 |
| Cision | no published price to convert | publishes no public price | not documented on the pages we measured, 31 Aug 2026 | cision.com/pricing, 31 Aug 2026 |
The table shows that the hosted newsroom is cheaper than Mynewsdesk and Presspage on a per-user-per-year basis. Prezly Essential is cheaper, but it hosts the newsroom on Prezly's domain, not yours. For a Dutch event where the brand needs to stay on the event's own website, that newsroom gives you that control at a lower price than the competitors that offer the same feature on your own domain.
Among the tools measured on 31 August 2026, only five vendors publish a price at all. This Dutch platform publishes the hosted newsroom price at EUR 1,750. Prezly publishes EUR 100 to 250 per month.
Mynewsdesk publishes from EUR 220 per month. Presspage publishes EUR 20,000 to 35,000 per year. Prowly publishes USD 258 per month, but that is in US dollars and no euro price is stated.
The other vendors in the measured set do not document a price. For example, Cision, Meltwater and Muck Rack do not show a price on their public pages. The same goes for Presscloud, pr.co and Notified. If you need a budget number, that newsroom is the only affordable option with a published price for a newsroom on your own domain.
Start by deciding where the media library will live. If you want it on your own domain, the newsroom product is the only tool with a published price that offers that. If you are fine with a subdomain under the vendor's name, Prezly or Mynewsdesk could work.
Then check the database of journalists. The Amsterdam supplier states its database holds 'thousands of Dutch and Belgian journalists' and covers 'virtually all media in the Netherlands and Flanders', according to the FAQ page, read 1 September 2026. Prezly and Mynewsdesk do not publish a journalist count for the Netherlands and Flanders.
If you plan to send press releases from the media library, check the release cost. ANP Connect publishes per release prices from EUR 499 to EUR 1,395, measured 31 August 2026. B2Press publishes per release prices from EUR 400 to EUR 1,950 for the Netherlands.
The supplier also sells the product, a journalist database and sending system, from EUR 2,650 per year for two logins, but that is a separate product. The hosted newsroom itself does not include press release sending, only the newsroom and media library.
Check the hosting location. the platform states that all development and hosting take place in the Netherlands with Dutch programmers, according to the FAQ page, read 1 September 2026. No hosting party, region or certification is named.
If data location is critical for your event, ask the vendor directly. For comparison, Prezly hosts on AWS eu-west-1 in Dublin, and Presspage names Germany as its data location. Check the number of logins included.
That newsroom does not state a number of logins on the product page, so you may need to ask. The Amsterdam database includes two logins for EUR 2,650 per year. Check the integration options.
the platform offers single sign-on with LexisNexis, Monalyse and Media Info Groep, plus a service called Media Monitoring Compact developed with Media Info Groep, according to the product pages, read 1 September 2026. If you already use one of these tools, the integration could save time. Check the ownership.
Kim Klaver took over the company on 2 December 2025, and Jeroen Goeman Borgesius is chief software development, according to the platform newsroom, read 1 September 2026.
Journalists visiting a Dutch event want to find photos quickly and without extra clicks. A media library on the event's own domain feels professional and trustworthy. The hosted newsroom gives you that.
The publisher page is on your domain, so the URL is your event name, not a vendor name. That matters for search engine results and for the brand image. That newsroom product costs EUR 1,750, with no period stated, making it the cheapest option among the vendors that offer a newsroom on your own domain.
Presspage, which also offers a newsroom on your own domain, starts at EUR 20,000 per year. The difference is the scale: Presspage targets larger organisations, while the newsroom product is designed for teams that need a simple, fast media library. For a Dutch event in 2026, the hosted newsroom gives you the right balance of cost and control.
The cheapest published price is PR-Newsroom at EUR 1,750, no period stated. Prezly Essential is cheaper at EUR 1,200 per year, but the newsroom is on Prezly's domain, not yours. For a newsroom on your own domain, PR-Newsroom is the cheapest.
Yes. the newsroom product lets you upload images, and they appear on the public page immediately. The same applies to Prezly and Mynewsdesk, though those newsrooms are on shared domains.
the Amsterdam supplier states its database holds 'thousands of Dutch and Belgian journalists' and covers 'virtually all media in the Netherlands and Flanders', according to the FAQ page, read 1 September 2026. Prezly and Mynewsdesk do not publish a journalist count for this region.
