Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
PMG MediaMeter helps communications and PR teams search and monitor print and online reporting across more than 3,000 publications. It supports current coverage searches and retrospective searches reaching up to 31 days. Teams can track company, product, campaign and reputation coverage, then examine media presence, reach, tonality, trends and context. Its focus is a fit for organizations that need structured print and online coverage monitoring rather than broadcast tracking.
Analysis and reporting features depend on the package. Extra-Small costs €2,095 per year and includes media presence analysis, reports, alerts and item-list exports. Small is €3,310 per year and adds tonality and subject analysis, opinion leaders and circulation, custom filters and dashboards. Medium costs €6,615 per year and adds reach analysis to the Small analysis set, while Large is €9,925 per year and includes advertising value equivalency analysis, reach analysis and dashboards. Flexible monthly contracts are also offered from €210 per month for Extra-Small to €990 per month for Large; the monthly option includes monthly termination. Published prices exclude statutory VAT.
Across tiers, MediaMeter can generate threshold-based alerts, including alerts for negative tonality, schedule reports to mailing lists, and create dashboards, interactive charts and media profiles. Results can be filtered and enriched with custom tags and scores; item lists and reports can be exported in Word, PDF or PowerPoint. The product is cloud-based, with phone and email support. Teams that need broadcast monitoring or retrospective searches beyond the stated window should consider alternatives. For teams focused on print and online coverage, the choice comes down to which analysis functions justify the annual or flexible monthly tier.
