AP ENPS review
A broadcast-focused newsroom system built around live rundowns, planning and scripting.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
AP ENPS is a newsroom computer system for broadcast producers, editors and journalists who plan and script live broadcasts. Its core workflow centers on managing rundowns and coordinating newsroom teams around real-time updates, making it a fit for established broadcast operations rather than teams looking for a general-purpose publishing system. Planning calendars, planning grids and newsroom scripting support the work from preparation through live production.
The live rundown is the clearest strength: updates are designed to keep newsroom teams coordinated as a broadcast changes. AP ENPS also connects with newsroom broadcast systems and other tools, including wire services, media asset management, graphics, automation and social systems. The listed integrations include Active Directory, Azure AD, Okta and Google. These connections, alongside single sign-on, role-based access controls and audit trails, suit deployments where access and coordination across newsroom systems matter. The product is available for cloud, hybrid and on-premises deployment, with Windows listed as its platform.
According to the vendor's pricing description, licensing is based on the number of devices or workstations, and buyers need to contact sales for pricing. That structure means teams should clarify their deployment needs and workstation count with the vendor before budgeting. AP ENPS is worth considering for mid-market and enterprise broadcast newsrooms that need live rundown management, planning and scripting in one system, especially where deployment flexibility and identity integrations are priorities. Teams outside broadcast workflows, or buyers who need upfront published pricing, should compare alternatives before committing. The vendor offers a trial by request; it is not presented as a free plan.
