Trusted by associations, expos and show organizers since 2011

In Their Own Words

Event organizers, associations, and show managers on what changed after moving to Map D.

“I just came back from show site. This week I had my largest show ever. I had 247 exhibitors and I had 247 happy exhibitors. And a lot of that is a result of they were able to get their badges, update their profile, reach out to me anytime they want to.”

“Exporting exhibitors is really helpful for me. Fern needs a list of all our exhibitors with their booth number and what size it's going to be. Just exporting that list and getting it to whoever I'm working with at Fern is so incredibly helpful.”

“I'm probably your only customer who uses it to sell campsites, but it works really well. I just give them a drawing and they put it all together for me. I don't have to do it - it saves me many hours.”

Floor Plans & Booth Sales

Live layouts, booth inventory and exhibitor space selection, in organizers’ own words.

Bridal Extravaganza Show

Today I trained a new staffer on the MapD platform. This reminded me how user friendly the program is. In less then five minutes, my new staff member was updating our floor plan. If you have been in the show business a long time, you understand how important this is. With the MapD system, we can quickly respond to our customer's wants and needs. This makes selling a booth to a new exhibitor a breeze.

Canadian Motorsports Expo

It's been a fantastic tool for organizing the show and selling space. Being able to share a 'live' plan internally and with our customers has proven extremely beneficial and has saved us a ton of time.

Chesapeake Tri-Association

Thank you MapD! Your ability to develop solutions to our unique needs has given us a first-class booth sales system! Excellent customer service with an excellent product - we are glad to be working with you!

Rachel Ellis

East Bay Rental Housing Association

This software allows you to access your event floor plan from any device, and make changes to both the layout and exhibitor location with ease, in an instant. Not only that, you can send a link to your floor plan to prospective exhibitors, they can see what spaces are available, and can either reserve a space themselves, or provide you with their top couple location preferences, and then you can control the final plan.

The cost of using this software is minimal, and immediately offset by both the time savings and the ability for vendors to sign up and pay for the event at their leisure (in other words, independently of me). MapD's customer support is excellent, and I highly recommend you consider this product for your next expo.

Tina Bocheff

Director of Strategic Partnerships

The Fit Expo Los Angeles

We received compliments on the interactive floor plan from at least 100 exhibitors. Probably more. So thank you for an excellent program. We are so happy with it!

Georgia Association of Convenience Stores

[MapD] is a user-friendly product that helps create a smoother tradeshow by allowing us to showcase booths sold and update the floorplan based on registrations. It allows our vendors to make better booth selections when registering, as they can view layout changes as well as partner or competitor booth location.

Jennie Nesspor

Manager, Events and Administration

Georgia Association of Convenience Stores

Georgia Society of Association Executives

The team at MapD is a fantastic combination of innovation and client support, providing a product that is as easy to use as it is impressive to look at. The map helps organize our tradeshow in a clear way, allowing exhibitors and attendees alike a preview of the show. Jeremy and his team are so easy and fun to work with! They're great to follow-up and continually ask for ideas/ways to improve their product.

I absolutely love working with this program, it makes selling and managing booths so much easier. Very easy to use, looks brilliant and your staff are fantastic! Our clients love their new live floor plans too, thank you! Highly recommended.

Hi Events, Australia

Kinsley

MapD is one of the most user friendly systems I have found for floor plan software. The customer service received after signing up goes unmatched by any other systems I have used. MapD has truly made my job easier as an Exhibit Manager and helps to promote and sell booth space with the interactive floor plan I can deliver to my vendors.

Network Events, Inc.

This morning during our set up for the weekend event, we had several changes we needed to make on the fly and move some exhibitors. Your system makes it so easy to edit the floorplan so that our entire team including the sales force back at the office has an accurate and up to date booth inventory.

We do multiple shows per year and the MapD link is a major asset a useful tool for our many clients, which as you know include leading television stations and NFL teams.

The software is really user friendly so the learning curve was short for our staff. We are not using all the features currently outside of the booth assignment and map functions but look forward to expanding our use to a value-add for our clients. We truly could not sell or manage our events without a fine quality live floor plan system.

Mary Hurley

Network Events, Inc.

New Jersey State League of Municipalities

MapD hosts a simple, comprehensive and straight forward platform for our interactive online floor plan. I can easily make changes and additions at any time; this reduces inaccuracies and presents the most up to date version of our floor plan. All of the functions are very easy to navigate and anyone can learn the system! Thank you for making a user-friendly, cost effective and great product!

Thank you for all your help with the 2015 Ohio Tactical Officers Association conference. The vendor show was a large success and the interactive map was a huge part of it.

Pittsburgh Business Show

As the show owner, producer and promoter of the Pittsburgh Business Show, I can not say enough about the entire team at MapD. We have been using their system for the past 3 years and I do not know how I would ever run my shows with out it! I actually wouldn't!!! It has everything that you need to simplify the purchasing process as well as be creative for exhibitors and allows me to manipulate the show map to grow and be creative in real time for additional events, special sponsor requests and any other unexpected map changes in minutes. Working with my designer and the David L. Lawrence Convention Center has been such an easy process and I believe it because of the technology that MapD has created. My exhibitors and sponsors love how easy it is to register their booth, pay their invoices and update their information! Thank you Chris Sikes and the entire team at MapD. I am looking forward to a long standing relationship and hope to grow with you for many years to come! Well Done!

What event teams say about registration, exhibitor self-service and day-to-day administration.

Agency for Health Care Administration

I really just wanted to let you know I've been finding it a real pleasure and joy to work with the MapD platform! I know I'm not yet using many of the available features, but what I need to find or do at this point, is easily found and do-able AND the interface is visually pleasing. Every once in a while, I attempt to do something new and in the course of looking, I find the right place, and often learn other things that are possible.

We learned about MapD last year [2016] and tried it for the first time. We were very pleased and are now using it for a second year. It's a great platform for exhibit hall registration and saves a lot of time and manual processes.

Georgia Municipal Association

I have used MapD and their ExopRep system for 3 years now and have already started using the system for 2014. This system helps not only my exhibitors but my attendees and members can visit the show all year. The system is very easy to use and affordable, and the team is always responsive to any trouble I have. I highly recommend giving it a try if you have a trade show to plan and don't have an army to help plan it.

Hashtag Events

We've been impressed with the overwhelming response from our exhibitors when we deployed ExpoRep from MapD. They love the great profiles, the responsive and interactive map and the ease of booking and selecting their stand. As organizers we've loved the stats and metrics and being able to take a labor intensive booking process and automate it end to end, freeing up resource to spend more time taking care of exhibitors and attendees. We didn't know it when we signed up that we couldn't live without it!

MapD is indeed a welcome and needed change for the way we sell booths and handle our awesome exhibitors. With being in our 20th year, we needed a system that would take the guesswork out of exhibitor payments, accounting, floor plan assignments and more! MapD has helped us sell more booths in a shorter time frame and we will most definitely continue to use them!

MapD's Home Base software has been a life-saver! It has wrangled our 90 speakers and 60+ sessions into an organized, user-friendly, interactive site that potential attendees can easily peruse. Home Base helped us put profile controls into the hands of our speakers, exhibitors, and attendees, which has saved us countless hours of manual updates. They have made our pivot to virtual very easy.

MapD Home Base software is easy to use for admin and attendees. It made the transition to virtual almost painless and, more importantly, has made our sponsors and attendees happy.

Texas Association of CVBs

I was blown away by our conference app provided by Map D! It's really everything I hoped for and more. Our app had the features our members need, but also provided some extra bells and whistles that made it even more valuable. The interactive trade show floor plan and the ability to build individualized schedules made navigating our event's many activities a breeze. From the admin side, a 10 minute tutorial was all it took to get me up and running. Entering and editing information couldn't have been easier. I highly recommend Map Dynamics and their products. From the product itself, to the user experience, and the people providing customer support, Map D is #1 in my book.

The reason to use MapD is simple...they aren't a vendor, they are a PARTNER! Whether it's the tradeshow floor plan, your single event app or the multi-event app, 'Map D' wants to create the very best product to help their clients manage events better. I've referred dozens of associations to MapD over the last several years, and every one has told me that the investment was one of the very best decisions they've made.

We've worked with Map Dynamics since 2011 and have been very happy with their product and their customer service. The maps always turn out great, exhibitors love them and it saves us a bunch of time.

I would just like to thank MapD for their services. Their map program is first class, right along with their customer service. I do not know of too many account managers that would answer their phone on Saturday night and provide technical support for an hour, he is awesome. Two things that I love about their Map program: 1. The ability to make changes and to customize booth layout and exhibitor information is remarkable. 2. The finished map that appears and functions on our web page is truly professional. Thank you MapD.
