"Before using Meltwater News, we were just checking main news Web sites, subscribed for breaking news alerts, and relied on our PR agency to feed information to us. It was not real time and didn't cover our competitors. Now we receive Meltwater News clips to not only monitor what is happening in the news regarding our company, but also our competitors and suppliers. It is the only way we can monitor the news about our company and industry effectively and conclusively."

"I had been aware of Meltwater and the services they provide for some time before eventually taking the opportunity to work with them following my appointment to sportscotland. Following an initial discussion in 2009 we agreed a partnership for a two year period that would provide us with an online clippings service which was a departure from our previous practice of receiving hard copy clippings. As well as providing a more streamlined and efficient service we managed to reduce costs and benefit from the associated tools on offer from Meltwater News that allowed us to evaluate media coverage. Throughout the period of the partnership the team at Meltwater have been supportive as we have refined the service to meet our needs culminating in our decision recently to agree to additional services that will include media distribution and database management and access to their significant list of journalistic contacts. The services provided have added a new dimension to the work of the media team inside sportscotland which includes the ability to enhance media activity reports for internal use and inform media strategy based on the reach of our media activity."

"I was getting buried under paper clips. And most of them weren't even relevant. There was no way to refine the search enough and cataloging the paper copies was a task that just never got done. Switching to Meltwater News has simplified things so much. The Meltwater search agents enable you to narrow your clip gathering to only the topics and stories relevant to your company, competition, and industry. Now I have an electronic database of clips that I can organize and analyze so much easier."
