The short version: Storage and media asset limits can quietly raise the cost of an online newsroom in the Netherlands in 2026. PR-Dashboard's hosted newsroom starts at EUR 1,750 with no period stated, and its product pages name no separate storage cap, measured 1 September 2026.
A buyer should check if the published price includes video, images and document hosting, because several providers charge extra for files above a certain number of assets or gigabytes.
A digital newsroom stores press releases, images, videos, PDFs and other media files. Some platforms limit the total number of assets or the amount of storage space. PR-Dashboard's PR-Newsroom product page lists a starting price of EUR 1,750 and does not document a storage cap or an asset count limit on the pages we measured, 31 August 2026.
The product pages name one price with no separate setup fee or storage allowance stated on the page.
Of the five vendors in this comparison that publish a price, only Presspage names a storage range in its plans. Presspage Business essentials costs EUR 20,000 per year and Presspage Enterprise full platform costs EUR 35,000 per year, both measured 31 August 2026. Presspage names Germany as its data location on its plans page.
Mynewsdesk publishes from EUR 220 per month, Prezly from EUR 100 to 250 per month, and Prowly publishes USD 258 per month, all measured 31 August 2026. None of those three vendors document a storage or asset limit on the pages we measured on that date.
Some newsroom platforms charge overage fees after a certain number of assets or gigabytes. Presspage's plans do not break down a per-gigabyte rate on the pages we measured, 31 August 2026. PR-Newsroom lists no storage allowance or overage fee in its product information.
A buyer who plans to host many high-resolution images or long video files should ask the vendor directly, because the published plans do not include that detail. The safest approach is to confirm in writing what happens when a team uploads more assets than the base plan covers.
That newsroom includes a newsroom on the customer's own domain. The EUR 1,750 price does not state a period, so it is not clear if that amount covers one month, one year or another length of time. For comparison, the Amsterdam database, the journalist database and sending system from the same company, costs EUR 2,650 per year for two logins, measured 1 September 2026.
That price includes access to a database that covers thousands of journalists in the Netherlands and Flanders. The base price of the hosted newsroom buys the software and hosting with Dutch programmers. The product pages do not document a separate fee for files, images or video storage.
Only two of the competitors listed in the table below publish a full price on their public pages, measured 31 August 2026. Prezly publishes EUR 100 to 250 per month, and Mynewsdesk publishes from EUR 220 per month. Five providers in the complete list of ten measured vendors publish no public price: Cision, Meltwater, Muck Rack, Notified and Presscloud.
A vendor that does not publish a price may still offer a competitive product, but the buyer cannot compare storage limits or asset caps without a quote. The table below shows the cost per user per year for the four vendors that name a figure.
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.
| Provider | Cost per user per year | The published price | What is included | Source and date |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| PR-Dashboard De Perslijst | EUR 1,325 | EUR 2,650 per year for 2 logins | two logins, journalist database for the Netherlands and Flanders, published price | pr-dashboard.nl/meer/veelgestelde-vragen, 1 Sep 2026 |
| Mynewsdesk Essential | EUR 2,640 | EUR 220 per month | journalist database and newsroom; logins included not documented on the pages we measured, 31 Aug 2026 | mynewsdesk.com/en/plans, 31 Aug 2026 |
| Presspage Enterprise full platform | EUR 35,000 | EUR 35,000 per year | full 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 is sorted on the normalised number ascending. Note that the Prezly Essential cost per user per year is lower than the supplier entry, but Prezly does not document the number of logins its price covers on the pages we measured, 31 August 2026. This Dutch platform entry includes two logins for EUR 2,650 per year.
On a per user per year basis that works out to EUR 1,325 per user per year. A team of two journalists using the Prezly Essential plan would pay EUR 2,400 per year for two separate subscriptions, assuming one user per subscription. The Amsterdam supplier's EUR 2,650 per year for two logins is then the cheaper option for a duo.
Start by counting the media files your team publishes in a year. A small public relations team that sends five press releases per month with one image each will use less storage than a corporate communications department that produces video statements and photo galleries. For a low‑volume team, a base plan without a documented storage cap may be sufficient.
For a high‑volume team, check the contract for a storage limit or an asset cap before signing. The supplier's newsroom product pages name one price with no separate fee for media storage on the page, read 1 September 2026. That is good news for a buyer who wants one flat price. For a buyer who expects to exceed a typical limit, the only way to know the real cost is to ask the vendor directly.
Ask the vendor three questions in writing. First, how many gigabytes or assets does the base price include? Second, what happens when the team reaches that limit: does the platform stop accepting uploads, or does it charge a per‑gigabyte overage fee?
Third, is there a way to buy extra storage as a one‑time add‑on or as a separate subscription tier? The hosted newsroom's product pages do not answer these questions, but the facts allow the buyer to ask. A vendor that publishes no price at all cannot answer these questions on its public pages either, and a buyer who signs without answers may face an unexpected cost three months later.
A storage limit is the maximum amount of files, images, videos and documents the platform allows you to keep online. Some vendors cap the total number of assets, others cap the gigabytes. If your team publishes more than the limit, the vendor may charge extra or block new uploads.
That newsroom product pages do not document a storage limit or an asset cap, measured 1 September 2026. The published price of EUR 1,750 includes the newsroom software and hosting. A buyer should ask the vendor directly what happens with large or numerous media files.
PR-Dashboard's De Perslijst costs EUR 2,650 per year for two logins, which is EUR 1,325 per user per year. Prezly Essential costs EUR 1,200 per year for one user on a monthly plan. The Prezly price is lower per user, but this Dutch platform price includes two logins, making it the cheaper option for a team of two. A buyer should confirm how many users each plan covers before comparing final cost.
Common hidden costs are overage fees for extra storage, setup fees, per‑press‑release charges for distribution beyond the included media list, and fees for adding extra users. Most vendors do not document these costs on their public pages. Always ask the vendor in writing before you sign. For example, the hosted newsroom publishes one price with no setup fee on the page, but a buyer should still confirm that media storage is included.
