SongShow Plus review
A Windows-focused church presentation system with advanced display and media control.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
SongShow Plus is church presentation software for services that combine lyrics, Scripture, images, video, slideshows, web pages, and text overlays. It is aimed at churches that need more than a single projected screen, with support for stage displays, environmental projection, independent multi-display output, and NDI workflows. Mobile control is available through a progressive web app, while presentation preparation and licensed projection installations are primarily associated with Windows workstations.
Its strongest distinction is output depth. The SongShow Plus 9 Ultra Edition supports up to six simultaneous screens, including independent displays, stage output, environmental projection, and NDI output for streaming workflows. The software also includes a custom slide and slideshow builder, media playback, and presentation of song lyrics and Scripture. These capabilities suit production teams managing several audience, stage, and environmental views. Churches looking for a straightforward single-screen lyric tool may find this broader feature set more than they need.
The subscription options extend the surrounding workflow rather than simply changing presentation formats. Bronze adds software upgrades, SongSelect, Planning Center Online, Shift Worship, Microsoft Bing, and activation support. Silver adds SongShow Sync, SongShow Drive, SongShow Builder, Mobile Control, and weekday email and phone support. Platinum adds priority phone support, live training, on-demand training videos, and the Sync and Drive tools. A 30-day free trial is available, but there is no free plan. SongShow Plus is a strong fit for churches with multi-output presentation needs and a Windows-centered setup; churches prioritizing broader platform flexibility or simpler presentation requirements should consider a narrower tool.
