CyberAlert Announces Free Trial Of Media Monitoring Service
Free Trial includes Press Clipping, Broadcast Monitoring and Web Clipping Service
STRATFORD, CT — 3/10/03 — CyberAlert, Inc., an Internet-based media monitoring service serving corporations, not-for-profit organizations and government agencies since 1997, today announced it will be offering a 14-day free trial of its integrated press clipping, broadcast monitoring, and Web clipping service. The 14-day free trial is available to professionals in public relations, marketing, and competitive intelligence for a limited time.
Features of Free Trial
The free trial allows clients to specify key words or phrases, and CyberAlert's proprietary technology will automatically search over 13,000+ publications and broadcasters every day to find and "clip" new mentions of the clients' key words. CyberAlert then delivers to each client a daily report via e-mail containing only new clips found the previous 24 hours. Customers can select media coverage to meet their specific needs. The selected media include virtually all news syndication services, newspapers, magazines, journals, wire services, TV networks, and local TV stations in the United States and comprehensive coverage worldwide in 17 languages.
"With this trial, we can offer people a risk-free way of learning about the advantages of Internet-based media monitoring," said William J. Comcowich, President and CEO of CyberAlert, Inc. "Many publications publish more frequently on the Internet than they do in their traditional media, and most news stories now appear first on the Internet. As a result, media monitoring on the Internet now matches the features of old-fashioned press clipping services — while offering a number of significant advantages — including being up to 71% less expensive than overnight clip delivery from traditional press clipping services."
Advantages of Electronic Media Monitoring
The advantages cited by Comcowich for an Internet-based approach to news monitoring include fewer missed clips as a result of automated monitoring — software finds what humans often miss; the convenience of one-stop integrated service for monitoring both print publications and broadcasters; wider, deeper media coverage of over 1.8 million pages of news content each day; timely, reliable overnight delivery of new clips found the previous 24 hours; uncommonly precise clip accuracy through use of highly-specific search profiles and customized media lists; easier, faster sorting and data mining of clips through storage of full-text clips in digital databases; significant time-saving for staff in managing digital clips — far more time-efficient than managing paper clips in folders; anywhere, anytime access to all clips for authorized staff members; and lower costs realized from advanced technology.
