Clerk Broadcast Review, Pricing, Alternatives - 2025

Cerkl Broadcast stands out to us for its early and always-developing use of AI-driven personalization and multichannel communication capabilities. Unlike email-first platforms like Workshop or ContactMonkey, Cerkl goes further by delivering tailored content through email, mobile apps, and intranet integrations—making it especially useful for organizations with large, diverse, or deskless workforces.

Its MyNews engine is a key differentiator, personalizing content for each employee based on preferences, role, location, and past engagement. This personalization drives higher relevance and engagement while saving internal comms teams time on segmentation. Cerkl also integrates with platforms like SharePoint, Slack, and Microsoft Teams, making unifying messaging across the digital workplace easy.

That said, pricing starts at $799/month and scales based on audience size, which may be a consideration for smaller organizations with limited budgets. To provide a quick comparison, tools like Workshop start at $250/month but are mostly email-focused.

Some users have also voiced the need for an autosave feature, citing frustration after losing work hours due to a mistaken click. While powerful, the platform's feature set can also feel cognitively heavy. We’ve seen reports of friction with the email builder, including complaints about design limitations like the inability to wrap text around images.

Still, for mid-to-large teams that want deep personalization and multichannel reach, without shelling out for a full intranet that can cost $20,000, Cerkl Broadcast is a strong contender that offers capabilities few platforms in this category can match.
