eShow review
A broad exhibitor management system for associations with complex event programs.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
eShow is a web-based event management platform for associations, trade shows, and corporate events. Its exhibitor tools cover booth sales, online applications, booth selection, interactive floor plans, exhibitor profiles, payments, invoicing, checklists, communications, and lead retrieval with barcode scanning. A password-protected exhibitor service center gives participants a dedicated place to manage event requirements. The platform also includes registration, conference management, mobile event apps, event websites, and onsite technology, making it suited to organizations coordinating more than exhibitor transactions alone.
According to the vendor's pricing approach, eShow is sold through contact with sales rather than published plans. Pricing is customized by event and module scope, so buyers should evaluate the required combination of exhibition tools, registration, conference management, mobile apps, event websites, and onsite technology. The platform presents these modules as a connected system sharing one database, which may fit associations managing complex programs across several event functions.
Its integration list includes Aptify, Association Anywhere/ACGI, ClearVantage, Fonteva, Higher Logic, iMIS, Memberclicks, Membersuite, NetForum, Nimble, NOVI, Personify, Protech, Re:Members, and Rhythm. That ecosystem focus is relevant for associations that need exhibitor information and event operations to fit existing membership or association systems. eShow is a strong candidate for established organizations that need sales, fulfillment, communications, payments, and lead retrieval in one broader platform. Organizations seeking a simple, narrowly focused exhibition tool may prefer a smaller product with more straightforward published pricing.
