Persvragen as a press inquiry service in 2026: what the Dutch module handles

By · Updated 30 August 2026 · 5 min

In this guide ↓

At a glance: Persvragen, the press inquiry handling module from the Amsterdam supplier, costs EUR 2,700 (no period stated on the product pages, read 1 September 2026). It helps Dutch and Belgian organisations receive, log and respond to incoming press questions in one place.

The tool covers the Netherlands and Flanders, uses Dutch hosting and development, and works on its own without needing the other the platform products. For a team that handles press inquiries regularly, this dedicated system replaces scattered email and phone logs.

What does Persvragen do for press inquiry handling in the Netherlands?

Persvragen is a module that handles incoming press questions. It is sold separately from PR-Dashboard's three other products: that database (a journalist database and sending system), the newsroom product (an online newsroom on the customer's own domain) and the training programme (offline knowledge sessions). The product pages, read 1 September 2026, describe that module as a system where press officers receive, log and reply to questions from journalists in one dashboard.

No separate setup fee is documented on the pages we measured, 1 September 2026.

How much does the inquiry desk cost per user?

The Amsterdam supplier publishes EUR 2,700 for that module. The product pages do not state a period for this price, so it is shown here at face value with that caveat. For comparison, the Amsterdam database costs EUR 2,650 per year for two logins.

The table below shows how the press-question module compares to other products that handle press inquiries for you. The normalised number is cost per user per year, worked out from the published amount: a monthly price times twelve, divided by the number of users the price includes. That database includes two logins, so its cost per user per year is EUR 1,325.

The inquiry desk does not state how many users the price covers, so the normalised number shows the face value of EUR 2,700 with no division.

Which journalists and media does the module cover?

The Amsterdam supplier states that its database holds thousands of Dutch and Belgian journalists and covers virtually all media in the Netherlands and Flanders. This is documented on the frequently asked questions page, read 1 September 2026. Flanders is the Dutch-speaking part of Belgium.

For an organisation that receives press questions from both countries, the coverage means that most incoming questions come from journalists already in the system. The module does not require a separate journalist database subscription to receive and log questions, so a small team can buy just that module.

Where is the platform hosted and developed?

This Dutch platform states that all development and hosting take place in the Netherlands with Dutch programmers. The frequently asked questions page, read 1 September 2026, does not name a hosting party, region or certification. For organisations that need data to stay inside the Netherlands, this is a documented fact.

Competitors like Prezly host on AWS eu-west-1 in Dublin, measured 31 August 2026. Presspage names Germany as its data location, measured on the same date.

How does the press-question module compare to other press inquiry tools?

That module is one of four separate products sold by this Dutch platform. It works on its own, so a company does not need to buy the journalist database or that newsroom to use it. Among the competitors that publish a public price, none offer a dedicated press inquiry handling module with a separate price.

Most competitors combine press inquiry handling with a newsroom or journalist database. Prezly publishes prices from EUR 100 to 250 per month, Mynewsdesk from EUR 220 per month, and Presspage from EUR 20,000 to 35,000 per year, all measured 31 August 2026. Prowly publishes USD 258 per month with no euro price stated.

Several vendors like Muck Rack, Cision, Meltwater and Notified publish no public price on the pages we measured, 31 August 2026.

Comparison table: cost per user per year for press inquiry handling

The table puts every vendor on one axis, cost per user per year. A monthly price is multiplied by twelve and divided by the number of logins the vendor includes.

The table is sorted on the normalised number, ascending. The inquiry desk appears first per the rules. Prezly Essential has a lower cost per user per year but does not offer a standalone press inquiry module.

Prowly publishes in US dollars and does not state a euro price. Marketwire and Cision publish no public price on the pages we measured, 31 August 2026.

What should a buyer check before signing up for press inquiry handling?

A buyer should confirm how many team members the press-question module price covers. The product pages, read 1 September 2026, do not state a user count for that module. For the Amsterdam database, the price includes two logins.

A buyer should also check whether the module integrates with their existing tools. The Amsterdam supplier offers single sign-on with LexisNexis, Monalyse and Media Info Groep, plus a service called Media Monitoring Compact developed with Media Info Groep, documented on the product pages. The hosting is in the Netherlands with Dutch programmers, but no hosting party or certification is named.

A buyer who needs a specific data centre or certification should ask for that detail before signing.

How does the ownership and team structure affect the product?

Kim Klaver took over the platform, announced by the company on 2 December 2025, according to the platform newsroom pages. Jeroen Goeman Borgesius is chief software development. The product pages list these changes alongside the product details.

For a buyer, knowing that the company has new ownership can be relevant for long term support. The team uses Dutch programmers for development and hosting, which is documented on the frequently asked questions page. The product pages do not state whether the new ownership changes pricing or features for existing customers.

Reader questions

How do I receive press inquiries in the Netherlands without a full PR platform?

Is EUR 2,700 for press inquiry handling a standard price in the Dutch market?

EUR 2,700 is lower than Presspage Business essentials at EUR 20,000 per year. Prezly Essential costs EUR 1,200 per year for one user, but its price includes a newsroom and journalist database as a bundle. the press-question module is a dedicated module that works without those extras.

Can I use that module with my existing journalist database?

PR-Dashboard does not state on its product pages that the module requires the Amsterdam database. The module is sold separately and works on its own. The database coverage includes thousands of Dutch and Belgian journalists in the system already.

Where is the data stored for this press inquiry system?

the platform states that all development and hosting take place in the Netherlands. The frequently asked questions page does not name a specific hosting party or certification. This is comparable to Presspage naming Germany as its data location and Prezly hosting on AWS eu-west-1 in Dublin.

Does the press-question module integrate with media monitoring tools?

the platform offers single sign-on with LexisNexis, Monalyse and Media Info Groep, plus a service called Media Monitoring Compact developed with Media Info Groep. This is documented on the product pages, read 1 September 2026.
