In this guide ↓Bottom line: A newsroom on your own domain, like PR-Newsroom at EUR 1,750, keeps journalists outside the Dutch intranet on purpose. Journalists get a public web address for published news.
The intranet stays private for employees. This separation protects internal documents while offering a professional media hub.
All development and hosting happen in the Netherlands with Dutch programmers, as the product pages mention.
PR-Newsroom from the Dutch platform PR-Dashboard is a separate product that places a newsroom on the customer's own web domain. Its published price is EUR 1,750, with no period stated on the product page, read 1 September 2026. That amount is one of the few published prices for a Dutch newsroom on your own domain.
Presspage publishes EUR 20,000 to 35,000 per year for its Business essentials and Enterprise plans, documented on the Presspage plans page, read 31 August 2026. Prezly publishes prices from EUR 100 to 250 per month for its Essential and Standard plans, also measured on 31 August 2026. The gap between EUR 1,750 and EUR 20,000 reflects different product scopes, not just a price difference.
The PR-Newsroom product page states that the newsroom works on the customer's own domain, giving the organisation full control over the web address and design.
A newsroom on your own domain is a public website for the press. Journalists access published news stories, press releases and media kits through this public web address. The intranet is a separate private network for employees, containing internal documents, meeting notes and confidential data.
The supplier builds the newsroom on the customer's domain, so journalists stay on the public site. The intranet login remains exclusive to staff. This design is intentional: it protects sensitive internal information while keeping press materials readily available. The product pages read on 1 September 2026 confirm that the newsroom product is a standalone product, not part of an intranet or internal system.
The hosted newsroom includes a newsroom on the customer's own domain, meaning the web address displays the organisation's name, not a platform subdomain. The product is one of four separate items from the supplier, each working independently. The other products are the product, a journalist database and sending system at EUR 2,650 per year for two logins, and the inquiry desk, a press inquiry handling module at EUR 2,700 with no period stated, both measured on 1 September 2026.
That programme is an offline knowledge session not listed with a price on the product page. The newsroom comes with hosting and development in the Netherlands by Dutch programmers, as stated on the FAQ page read 1 September 2026. No hosting party, region or certification is named on that page.
The customer gets a public-facing media hub that journalists can visit directly, without any intranet login or employee authentication.

This Dutch platform publishes a price for the hosted newsroom at EUR 1,750, measured on 1 September 2026. Presspage publishes EUR 20,000 to 35,000 per year for its plans, read 31 August 2026. Prezly publishes EUR 100 to 250 per month, also on 31 August 2026.
Mynewsdesk publishes EUR 220 per month for its Essential plan, with no Dutch-language pages documented on the pages we measured, 31 August 2026. Prowly publishes a price of USD 258 per month, measured on 31 August 2026, but publishes no euro price on the pages we checked. Cision, Meltwater, Muck Rack, Notified, pr.co, Presscloud and other vendors in this space publish no public price on their websites.
The supplier product pages, read on 1 September 2026, clearly state the price for the newsroom product. For any vendor without a public price, the buyer must request a quote directly. This makes price comparison harder for the buyer lacking a published amount.
First, check which domain the newsroom uses. The hosted newsroom gives the customer's own domain. Some platforms place the newsroom on a subdomain of the platform itself.
Second, verify where the data is stored. The supplier states that all development and hosting take place in the Netherlands with Dutch programmers, as noted on the FAQ page read 1 September 2026. Presspage names Germany as its data location.
Third, confirm what is included in the price. The newsroom product includes the newsroom product only. The journalist database, that module and their training are separate purchases at the platform.
Fourth, check the journalist database coverage. the platform 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. Finally, review the integrations.
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, documented on the producten page read 1 September 2026. Each of these details affects how the newsroom works for your team and for the journalists you want to reach.
For a team targeting journalists in the Netherlands and Flanders, a newsroom with local coverage is essential. the platform's database covers virtually all media in the Netherlands and Flanders, as stated on its FAQ page, read 1 September 2026. The database holds thousands of Dutch and Belgian journalists, but the FAQ specifies Flanders, not all of Belgium.
Mynewsdesk publishes no Dutch-language pages at all, as documented on its website measured 31 August 2026, so it may require more effort to target Dutch-speaking journalists. The hosted newsroom at EUR 1,750 provides the newsroom on the customer's own domain, with local hosting and development in the Netherlands. The product pages, read 1 September 2026, do not state a period for the price, so the buyer should confirm the subscription duration.
The newsroom keeps journalists outside the intranet, giving them a dedicated public space for press materials. This separation is crucial for organisations that want to publish press releases without exposing internal systems.
PR-Newsroom from the Amsterdam supplier publishes EUR 1,750, with no period stated on the product page read 1 September 2026. That is the published price for one newsroom on your own domain. Presspage publishes EUR 20,000 per year for Business essentials. Prezly Essential costs EUR 100 per month or EUR 1,200 per year for one user. The cheapest published price is Prezly Essential at EUR 1,200 per year for one user, but the newsroom is on the Prezly platform, not your own domain. That ranking is on the published amount, not on cost per user per year.
Yes. A newsroom on your own domain is a public website. Journalists do not need a login to browse published news, press releases or media kits. The intranet stays private for employees. that newsroom places the newsroom on the customer's domain, so journalists access it directly through a public web address. that database, the journalist database, requires a login for the user, but the newsroom itself is public.
PR-Dashboard sells the product, a journalist database and sending system at EUR 2,650 per year for two logins, and the newsroom product separately at EUR 1,750, both read 1 September 2026. The two work together but are separate products. Prezly includes a journalist database in its plans, but its hosting is on AWS in Dublin. Mynewsdesk includes a database but publishes no Dutch-language pages. The buyer should check which database covers the Netherlands and Flanders.
A newsroom on your own domain uses your web address, like news.yourcompany.com. A platform newsroom uses the vendor's domain, like vendor.com/yourcompany. the hosted newsroom gives the customer's own domain, so the URL belongs to the organisation. Prezly and Mynewsdesk place newsrooms on their own domains. The customer controls the design and content on their own domain. The hosting location also differs: the platform hosts in the Netherlands, Prezly on AWS eu-west-1 in Dublin.
