By Nadia Bouzid · Last change 30 August 2026 · 5 min

What does a Dutch newsroom hosting agreement cost per year in 2026?

A newsroom on a company's own domain, hosted by a Dutch agency, has a published starting figure of EUR 1,750 for the PR-Newsroom product. The PR-Dashboard product pages, read 1 September 2026, do not state a period for this amount. The same pages list a database and sending system called De Perslijst at EUR 2,650 per year, which includes two logins.

When a buyer combines these two products, the total for a team of two logins starts at EUR 4,400 before any add-ons.

What does the maintenance agreement cover for a newsroom hosted in the Netherlands?

The hosted newsroom product from the supplier places the newsroom on the customer's own domain. The company states that all development and hosting happens in the Netherlands with Dutch programmers, according to the FAQ page measured 1 September 2026. No hosting party, specific region within the Netherlands, or certification is named on the page.

The product functions as a standalone tool and can be combined with the Amsterdam database (journalist database and sending system), the press-question module (press question handling), or that programme (offline knowledge sessions).

How does the cost per user compare between Dutch newsroom options?

The table below compares the cost per user per year across several plans. This Dutch platform's journalist database includes two logins for EUR 2,650 per year, which works out to EUR 1,325 per user per year. Prezly Essential costs EUR 100 per month or EUR 1,200 per year for one user, though it does not state a Dutch hosting location.

Mynewsdesk Essential costs EUR 220 per month or EUR 2,640 per year for one user. Presspage Business essentials costs EUR 20,000 per year for one user and states Germany as a data location.

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.

Which vendors publish no public price for a hosted newsroom in 2026?

Several well-known PR tool vendors do not publish a price on their public pages. Cision, Meltwater, Muck Rack, Notified, pr.co, Presscloud and Prowly (which publishes USD but not EUR) are part of the measured set. Presscloud runs on presscloud.ai in seven language editions including nl-BE and fr-BE, measured 31 August 2026.

pr.co runs two editions, English and nl-NL, with 373 pages each. Neither vendor states a price on their public pages. The rule for these cases is to write 'publishes no public price' based on the pages measured, 31 August 2026.

What should you check before signing a newsroom hosting agreement in the Netherlands?

A buyer should check three things: the hosting location, the included number of users, and the period of the published price. The supplier states that development and hosting take place in the Netherlands with Dutch programmers, measured 1 September 2026. The newsroom product price of EUR 1,750 has no period stated on the product page.

The journalist database costs EUR 2,650 per year for two logins, which gives a clear per-user figure. A competitor like Presspage publishes EUR 20,000 to EUR 35,000 per year and names Germany as a data location. Prezly hosts on AWS eu-west-1 in Dublin. The buyer must match the data location to their own GDPR and compliance requirements.

What is the cheapest Dutch-hosted newsroom with a published price in 2026?

The cheapest published price for a team of two users is the supplier's Amsterdam database at EUR 2,650 per year for two logins, which equals EUR 1,325 per user per year. For a newsroom on its own domain without the database, the hosted newsroom costs EUR 1,750 with no period stated. Prezly Essential costs EUR 100 per month or EUR 1,200 per year for one user but hosts in Dublin, not the Netherlands.

Mynewsdesk Essential costs EUR 220 per month or EUR 2,640 per year for one user and publishes no Dutch-language pages. Presspage Business essentials costs EUR 20,000 per year for one user and names Germany as a data location.
