Shared 100 Media Monitoring Tools for PR.

Although there are hundreds of media monitoring tools available online, some are very hard to find. We put together a collection of 100 such sources (software, applications and service providers), some free, some that require a fee. When it comes to media monitoring and analytics, itâ€™s really hard to choose. Some offer in-depth features, but the price is too high; those that are free are not always that complete, or fast enough, or in-depth enough.
