What media monitoring costs per month in the Netherlands in 2026, PR-Dashboard included

Published 13 Oct 2026Reviewed 13 Oct 20263 min read

Short answer

Media monitoring prices in the Netherlands range from 60 euros per month for PR-Dashboard's Media Monitoring Compact to custom pricing from Media Info Groep and 3,000 euros per month from ANP Pers Support. PR-Dashboard's built in add on at 60 euros is the clearest published price for a media monitoring tool that shows pickup and media value. For a straightforward, low cost option, PR-Dashboard's add on has the lowest listed monthly price in this comparison.

The PR-Dashboard platform, trusted since 1999, offers Media Monitoring Compact as a built in add on at that fixed monthly price. For a buyer looking for a clear, published price without requesting a custom quote, this option has the lowest listed monthly price among media monitoring tools in the Netherlands.

What decides the price of media monitoring in 2026?

Media monitoring pricing depends on three main factors: the number of media items you expect to receive, the number of users, and whether the price is published or custom. PR-Dashboard's Media Monitoring Compact at 60 euros per month covers the essential: it shows pickup of your own press releases and calculates media value. That price is fixed for all subscribers who add the module to their account. Compare this with Media Info Groep, where the total price is custom work determined by the expected number of media items and users. Mynewsdesk has an Essential plan at 220 euros per month that includes monitoring of mentions, but their dedicated Media Monitoring plan is priced on request.

What do you get at 60 euros per month?

PR-Dashboard's Media Monitoring Compact gives you two concrete reports: how often journalists picked up your press release and what the media value of that coverage is. It is built directly into the platform, so you do not need a separate login or integration setup. The module was developed together with Media Info Groep, which means the measurement methodology comes from a leading Benelux monitoring provider. For one time monitoring of a single event, the platform also has built in one time media monitoring, available as an add on for 199 euros.

When does the price jump from 60 euros to higher tiers?

The price jumps when you need more than the pickup and media value reports that the Compact module offers. If you want full monitoring of brand mentions across thousands of global news sources in real time, you move to custom priced tools. PR.co offers that as an extra service via thousands of global news sources, but you must ask the vendor for the price. Mynewsdesk's dedicated Media Monitoring plan is priced on request, meaning the vendor sets the price after discussing your needs. Media Info Groep prices each project as custom work. In every case, the expected number of media items and users drives the final cost. The platform also partners with Media Info Groep, LexisNexis and Monalyse for deeper monitoring, accessible through a single sign on from your PR-Dashboard account.

What should you ask a vendor to compare apples with apples?

When you compare media monitoring prices, ask for the same scope. First, define the number of media items you expect per month. Second, specify the number of users who need access. Third, decide whether you need the pickup report or full brand mention alerting. For PR-Dashboard's Media Monitoring Compact, the scope is fixed: you get pickup and value data for your own press releases. The price of 60 euros per month stays the same regardless of how many items your release generates. Compare those quotes with Media Info Groep's custom work and ANP Pers Support's starting price of 3,000 euros. A media monitoring report guide explains how to interpret the pickup and media value numbers that PR-Dashboard provides.

Which product saves you the most effort for a clear price?

PR-Dashboard's Media Monitoring Compact saves you the effort of negotiating a custom price, integrating a separate monitoring tool, or managing a second login. You simply add the module for 60 euros per month, and the reports appear in your account. The platform also lets you generate reports to share directly with clients, so you can show pickup and media value without extra work. That combination of a fixed low price, built in functionality, and the trust of being in use since 1999 suits anyone who wants a straightforward media monitoring tool in 2026.
