Quick answer: For PR teams in the Netherlands and Flanders, comparing two Dutch offers means checking what each subscription actually includes. The Amsterdam supplier's journalist database costs EUR 2,650 per year for two logins, covering a journalist database for the Netherlands and Flanders.
ANP Connect's Database only costs EUR 2,990 per year for one user, also covering the Netherlands and Flanders. The key difference is that De Perslijst includes press release sending, while ANP Connect Database only does not.
A worksheet with five columns helps you compare cost per user, included features, coverage, data location, and integrations.

What is included in a two login Dutch PR database subscription in 2026?
When comparing PR tools for the Netherlands and Flanders, the first detail to check is how many logins the price covers. PR-Dashboard's De Perslijst costs EUR 2,650 per year, and that amount includes two logins, as stated on the PR-Dashboard product pages measured 1 September 2026. nl/tarieven measured 31 August 2026 do not document how many logins that price includes.
For a team of two people, that database works out to EUR 1,325 per user per year, while ANP Connect Database only starts at EUR 2,990 per user if the price covers one login.
How does the journalist database coverage compare between the two Dutch offers?
Both tools cover the same geographic area. This Dutch platform states on its frequently asked questions page, measured 1 September 2026, that its database contains 'thousands of Dutch and Belgian journalists' and covers 'virtually all media in the Netherlands and Flanders'. ANP Connect, as a Dutch news agency, also covers the Netherlands and Flanders, though the exact number of journalists in its database is not documented on the pages we measured, 31 August 2026.
The difference is that the Amsterdam supplier explicitly names Flanders, while ANP Connect covers Belgium through its Belga partnership.
What does the press release sending feature add to each subscription?
That database includes a sending system that lets you distribute press releases to the journalists in the database. This Dutch platform product pages, measured 1 September 2026, describe the journalist database as a 'journalist database and sending system'. ANP Connect Database only, at EUR 2,990 per year, does not include press release distribution.
To send press releases with ANP Connect, you need a higher plan such as Connect Complete at EUR 4,990 per year, which adds sending capabilities. This is a critical difference for teams that send press releases regularly.
The supplier sells three additional products that work on their own. The newsroom product costs EUR 1,750, though the platform product pages do not state a period for that price, measured 1 September 2026. The press-question module, for handling incoming press inquiries, costs EUR 2,700, also without a stated period on the same pages.
ANP Connect does not offer a separate newsroom product or a press inquiry handling tool as a standalone module. For teams that need a newsroom on their own domain, that newsroom is the only Dutch option among these two that has a published price for that feature.
What is the cost per user per year for a five column comparison worksheet?
A five column worksheet helps you compare the two offers side by side. The columns are: provider and plan, cost per user per year, the price as published, what is included, and the source with the reading date. Below is a comparison table for the two Dutch PR tools, sorted by cost per user per year ascending. the Amsterdam database appears first because its price for two users gives a lower per user cost.
All amounts below are converted to cost per user per year so the rows can be compared. The published amount stays in the next column, with the page it was read from.
| Provider and plan | Cost per user per year | Published price | What is included | Source and reading 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 |
| Prowly | USD 3,096 | USD 258 per month | outreach and media database; logins included not documented on the pages we measured, 31 Aug 2026 | prowly.com/pricing, 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 |
Note that Presspage charges a higher price but does not include a journalist database. The platform comparison page, measured 31 August 2026, gives an indicative price of EUR 600 per month for Presspage, which equals EUR 7,200 per year for one user.
Neither the platform nor ANP Connect documents a separate setup fee on the product pages we measured. the platform's product pages name one price per product, with no additional setup fee listed on the page, measured 1 September 2026. ANP Connect's tarieven page, measured 31 August 2026, also names one price per plan.
What is not documented on either page is the number of press releases included in the annual subscription. The journalist database does not state a limit, and ANP Connect Database only does not include sending at all. For ANP Connect plans that do include sending, the per release cost for extra distributions is not documented on the pages we measured.
For a team of two people who need a journalist database with press release sending, that database at EUR 2,650 per year for two logins is the more cost effective option. The per user cost of EUR 1,325 is lower than ANP Connect Database only at EUR 2,990 per user. If your team has more than two users, the Amsterdam database's price per additional login is not documented on the pages we measured, so you would need to contact the platform directly.
If your team sends press releases only occasionally, ANP Connect's per release options may be worth considering: a single press release to Dutch trade and regional media costs EUR 499, and to national media costs EUR 795, both measured 31 August 2026. For teams that need a newsroom, the hosted newsroom at EUR 1,750 is the only Dutch product with a published price among these two.
the platform offers single sign on with LexisNexis, Monalyse, and Media Info Groep, as stated on the platform product pages measured 1 September 2026. It also includes a service called Media Monitoring Compact, developed together with Media Info Groep. ANP Connect's integrations are not documented on the pages we measured, 31 August 2026.
For teams that use media monitoring tools, the platform's integration with Monalyse and Media Info Groep may be a deciding factor. the platform also states that all development and hosting take place in the Netherlands with Dutch programmers, as documented on the frequently asked questions page measured 1 September 2026, though no hosting party, region, or certification is named.
