Newslive is the only editorial monitoring service to offer near real-time delivery of editorial content. The content is continuously updated, unlike competitive services who may only update content a couple of times per day. For example, with Newslive, new TV news clips are available for you to view less than ten minutes after their first appearance.

Newslive’s competitors all operate what we might call ‘legacy’ systems. They require a large amount of manual intervention and, as a result, are slow to initiate (or react to) change. What’s more, these legacy systems are slower to use and a lot less user-friendly and flexible than Newslive’s state-of-the-art system.

Here are 20 reasons to choose Newslive:

1 Customisable Web 2.0 user interface

Designed to look, and operate, like an email application, Newslive offers the most advanced web platform yet for managing news content. It is intuitive and user friendly; you can drag/drop content into customisable folders; and you can tailor the interface to each user’s individual requirements.

2 Ad hoc briefs

There’s now no need to call up your press cuttings agency and formerly negotiate additional key words – each user can add, amend, and run their own briefs on an ad hoc basis.
