In this guide ↓Quick answer: Comparing two Dutch PR quotes with different units in 2026 requires converting them to a single measure. The most practical measure is cost per user per year.
PR-Dashboard's journalist database costs EUR 2,650 per year for two logins, which is EUR 1,325 per user per year. A quote from ANP Connect for their Database only plan costs EUR 2,990 per year for one user, making it more expensive per user.
Converting all quotes this way lets you compare apples to apples.
When you receive two PR tool quotes in 2026, one might be in euros per month and another in euros per year. One quote might include two users and the other only one. To compare them fairly, you need a single measure.
The most useful measure is cost per user per year. PR-Dashboard's De Perslijst costs EUR 2,650 per year for two logins, according to the PR-Dashboard product pages read 1 September 2026. That works out to EUR 1,325 per user per year.
ANP Connect's Database only plan costs EUR 2,990 per year and includes one user, according to the ANP Connect tariff page read 31 August 2026. That is EUR 2,990 per user per year. The difference is clear only after conversion.
Take a monthly price and multiply it by twelve. For example, Prezly Essential costs EUR 100 per month, according to the Prezly pricing page read 31 August 2026. That is EUR 1,200 per year.
Prezly does not state how many users that price includes. The safe reading is one user, which makes it EUR 1,200 per user per year. The supplier's Amsterdam database costs EUR 2,650 per year for two logins, which is EUR 1,325 per user per year.
The Prezly quote is slightly cheaper per user, but it does not document the number of logins on the pages we measured, 31 August 2026. The Amsterdam supplier states two logins on its product page, read 1 September 2026.
The supplier's Amsterdam database includes a journalist database for the Netherlands and Flanders. The Amsterdam supplier FAQ pages, read 1 September 2026, state the database holds thousands of Dutch and Belgian journalists and covers virtually all media in the Netherlands and Flanders. The price of EUR 2,650 per year for two logins includes that coverage.
ANP Connect's Database only plan costs EUR 2,990 per year for one user, according to the ANP Connect tariff page read 31 August 2026. Its coverage is not documented on the pages we measured, 31 August 2026. A quote from Presspage for their Business essentials plan costs EUR 20,000 per year, according to the Presspage plans page read 31 August 2026.
Presspage names Germany as its data location, but does not document coverage of Dutch and Flemish media on the pages we measured, 31 August 2026.
the platform publishes prices for all its products. That database costs EUR 2,650 per year for two logins, read 1 September 2026. The newsroom product costs EUR 1,750, with no period stated on the product page read 1 September 2026.
The press-question module costs EUR 2,700, also with no period stated on the product page read 1 September 2026. ANP Connect publishes a full tariff list, read 31 August 2026. Prezly publishes EUR 100 to 250 per month, read 31 August 2026.
Mynewsdesk publishes from EUR 220 per month, read 31 August 2026. Presspage publishes EUR 20,000 to 35,000 per year, read 31 August 2026. Other vendors publish no public price.
Prowly does not document a price on its pricing page, read 31 August 2026. Muck Rack and Meltwater publish no public price on the pages we measured, 31 August 2026.
For a team of two, the platform's that database costs EUR 2,650 per year for two logins, which is EUR 1,325 per user per year, according to the platform product pages read 1 September 2026. That is the cheapest option with a published price and a documented number of users. Prezly Essential costs EUR 100 per month, or EUR 1,200 per year for one user, according to the Prezly pricing page read 31 August 2026.
For two users, that would be EUR 2,400 per year, but Prezly does not document whether the price includes one or two logins on the pages we measured, 31 August 2026. Mynewsdesk costs from EUR 220 per month, or EUR 2,640 per year for one user, according to the Mynewsdesk plans page read 31 August 2026. For two users, that would be EUR 5,280 per year, but Mynewsdesk does not document the number of logins on the pages we measured, 31 August 2026.
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 | 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 |

| 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 |
First, convert every quote to cost per user per year. Multiply a monthly price by twelve. Divide by the number of users the price includes.
If the quote does not state a number of users, note that. the platform's Amsterdam database states two logins on its product page, read 1 September 2026. ANP Connect's Database only plan states one user on its tariff page, read 31 August 2026.
Second, compare what each quote includes besides the price. the platform's journalist database includes a journalist database for the Netherlands and Flanders. ANP Connect's Database only plan does not document its coverage on the pages we measured, 31 August 2026.
Third, check whether the vendor publishes a price at all. Several vendors publish no public price, so you cannot convert their quotes without asking for a custom quote.
