Overview

EventMobi is an event app and event experience platform used by conferences, associations, nonprofits, and corporate event teams. Its publicly documented product line covers event websites and registration, a branded event app, check-in and badge printing, exhibitor lead capture, and attendee engagement tools such as gamification, networking and community features, appointment booking, and live polls and surveys. EventMobi also offers interactive event maps as a feature inside its event app, helping attendees orient themselves and find sessions, booths, and points of interest.

ExpoFP takes a different, more focused approach: the interactive floor plan is the product. ExpoFP gives organizers a drag-and-drop floor plan editor, booth inventory management, online booth reservations and purchases, exhibitor profiles and discovery, website embedding, browser-based attendee wayfinding, and floor plan analytics and reporting. Everything is built around the map — from the first booth sold to the last attendee navigating the show floor — and it works in any browser with no app download required.

This page is for teams comparing ExpoFP vs EventMobi, looking for an EventMobi alternative, or deciding whether the event app or the interactive floor plan is the primary attendee experience. If your event lives and dies by its show floor — booth sales, exhibitor discovery, and attendee navigation — the depth of the floor plan tooling matters more than the breadth of the app around it.

Quick verdict

This is an engagement-first versus map-first decision.

Choose ExpoFP if

You run a trade show, expo, or exhibition where the floor plan drives revenue and attendee experience. ExpoFP gives you map-first booth inventory, online reservations and purchases, and browser-based wayfinding that attendees can open instantly — no app install. Published pricing from $149/mo, a free plan, and a 7-day trial mean you can start today without a sales call.

Choose EventMobi if

Your priority is a branded event app with registration, agendas, networking, gamification, and engagement analytics across conferences or an association's event portfolio. EventMobi's platform is built around the app experience and organizer services, and its maps feature exists to support that broader workflow rather than to run booth sales.

Feature-by-feature comparison

Why teams pick ExpoFP over EventMobi

Teams that run exhibition-driven events usually come to ExpoFP for one reason: the floor plan is not a feature bolted onto an app — it is the entire product, engineered for booth sales and navigation at scale.

  • Booth sales built into the map. Exhibitors browse the live plan, reserve, and pay for booths online — turning the floor plan into a revenue channel, not just a wayfinding image.
  • Dedicated map depth. Booth inventory, statuses, categories, multi-building layouts, and live availability are first-class concepts, not app content.
  • Browser-first access. Attendees and exhibitors open the map from a link or QR code instantly — no app download, no login wall.
  • Embed anywhere. The same interactive plan and exhibitor list embed directly into your event website, keeping traffic on your domain.
  • Published, floor-plan-specific pricing. Free plan, 7-day trial, and DIY from $149/mo — you know the cost before you ever talk to anyone.
  • Fast, self-serve setup. Trace your venue and publish in hours yourself, instead of scoping a platform-wide implementation.

When EventMobi may be a better fit

If your event's center of gravity is the conference program rather than the show floor, EventMobi's breadth is a genuine advantage. Its publicly documented platform spans event websites and registration, a polished branded event app, check-in and badge printing, gamification, networking and appointment booking, exhibitor lead capture, and multi-event management — supported by professional services and event success teams. Associations and corporate event teams that want one vendor for the full attendee journey, with maps as a supporting feature, may reasonably prefer EventMobi.

The real tradeoff

EventMobi is engagement-first: the branded event app is the hub, and registration, networking, gamification, and maps are experiences inside it. That model shines when your primary goals are attendee participation, session engagement, and year-round community across an event portfolio.

ExpoFP is map-first: the interactive floor plan is the hub, and booth inventory, exhibitor sales, discovery, and wayfinding are built directly into it. When booth revenue and show-floor navigation are what make your event succeed, a dedicated floor plan platform typically goes deeper than a map feature inside an app ever needs to.

How they can fit together

This is not always an either/or decision. Many organizers run an event app for agendas and engagement while using a dedicated floor plan platform for the show floor — and the two can complement each other cleanly.

A common pattern: EventMobi (or any event app) handles registration, agendas, and networking, while ExpoFP powers booth sales before the event and browser-based wayfinding during it. Because ExpoFP is web-based, it links or embeds wherever your attendees already are.

  • Link the ExpoFP floor plan from your event app, website, emails, and on-site QR codes.
  • Sell and manage booths in ExpoFP while your app platform handles attendee registration and engagement.
  • Keep one live source of truth for the floor: every change to the plan is instantly reflected everywhere it's linked or embedded.

FAQ

Common questions for teams comparing ExpoFP and EventMobi.

Yes — for the floor plan, booth sales, and wayfinding side of an event. ExpoFP replaces or exceeds the mapping capabilities of a general event platform with a dedicated tool for booth inventory, online booth reservations and purchases, and browser-based navigation. It does not aim to replace EventMobi's registration, event app, or engagement features, so some teams use it alongside an app platform.
