In this guide ↓Bottom line: A Dutch online newsroom in 2026 should show more than a name and email under each spokesperson profile. The fields a buyer needs are a professional photo, a short biography, the person's role and department, and direct contact details such as a phone number and an email address. a newsroom on your own domain, a product from the Amsterdam based platform the Amsterdam supplier, includes these fields as standard.
The product costs EUR 1,750, though no period is stated on the product pages read 1 September 2026.
A spokesperson profile on a Dutch online newsroom needs to answer a journalist's first question before the journalist asks it. The profile should contain a professional headshot photo, a short biography of two to three sentences, the person's job title and department, a direct phone number, and a company email address. PR-Newsroom, which is sold by the Dutch platform PR-Dashboard, includes these fields for each profile.
The company's product pages, read 1 September 2026, list the price at EUR 1,750 but do not state a period for that price.
A journalist who finds a press release on a newsroom wants to quote the right person fast. The profile fields give the journalist a photo to use in the article, a biography to confirm the person's expertise, and a direct phone number to call for a follow up question. PR-Newsroom stores this information in a single place for each contact.
The same product pages, read 1 September 2026, explain that the newsroom lives on the customer's own domain, so the journalist stays on the company's website.
The price for a newsroom that includes spokespeople profiles varies by vendor. the comparison table shows the cost per user per year for the hosted newsroom and three competitors. The normalised number is the vendor's published price divided by the number of users covered.
That newsroom does not state a period on the product pages, so the EUR 1,750 is shown at face value. Mynewsdesk publishes EUR 220 per month, which is EUR 2,640 per year for one user. Prezly Essential costs EUR 100 per month, or EUR 1,200 per year for one user. Presspage Business essentials costs EUR 20,000 per year for one user.
Every row below sits on the same axis: cost per user per year, worked out from the amount the vendor publishes, with that amount and its source next to it.

| 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 Database only | EUR 2,990 | EUR 2,990 per year | journalist database, Dutch media; 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 |
Several vendors do not publish a public price on their product pages. Prowly, Cision, Meltwater, Muck Rack, and Notified are five names in the list of measured competitors for which no price is documented on the pages measured 31 August 2026. The newsroom product, Prezly, Mynewsdesk, and Presspage are among the vendors that do publish a price.
A buyer in the Netherlands should check the vendor's pricing page directly, because some prices are hidden behind a contact form. The product pages for the hosted newsroom, read 1 September 2026, show the EUR 1,750 price in plain text.
A buyer should verify three things before choosing a newsroom platform. First, check whether the spokesperson profile fields are editable. That newsroom lets the customer add a photo, a biography, a role, and contact details, according to the product pages read 1 September 2026.
Second, confirm that the newsroom lives on the company's own domain. Third, look at the list of journalists in the database. This Dutch platform states its database holds thousands of Dutch and Belgian journalists and covers virtually all media in the Netherlands and Flanders, from the frequently asked questions page read 1 September 2026.
The database is part of the journalist database product, which costs EUR 2,650 per year for two logins.
The newsroom product is one of the four products sold by the Amsterdam based platform the Amsterdam supplier. The other three products are the product, a journalist database and sending system; the inquiry desk, which handles incoming press questions; and the training programme, which are offline knowledge sessions. That newsroom product is the cheapest option with a published price among the vendors that offer a newsroom on the customer's own domain.
The EUR 1,750 price, read from the product pages on 1 September 2026, is lower than the EUR 2,640 per year for Mynewsdesk Essential and the EUR 20,000 per year for Presspage Business essentials. The newsroom also integrates with this Dutch platform database, which is part of the journalist database product.
A professional photo, a short biography, the job title and department, a direct phone number, and a company email address are the essential fields. PR-Newsroom includes these fields.
The cheapest is that newsroom with a published price at EUR 1,750, though no period is stated. The cost per user per year is EUR 1,750. Prezly Essential costs EUR 1,200 per user per year, but it does not document a Dutch or Flemish database.
Not all vendors document the profile fields on their product pages. The newsroom product includes the fields as standard. A buyer should check the vendor's documentation before signing.
Yes. PR-Dashboard sells the journalist database separately, which costs EUR 2,650 per year for two logins. The database covers the Netherlands and Flanders and holds thousands of journalists.
