About FairManager

FairManager is an event management software/platform from Hartwig Communication & Events that supports the planning and execution of trade fairs and exhibitions. It provides features such as registration management, exhibitor coordination, and reporting analytics so event organizers can manage complex events effectively. The platform also includes functionalities for visitor tracking and communication tools that allow for better attendee engagement. FairManager is designed to simplify event logistics while providing critical insights. Key capabilities: registration management exhibitor coordination reporting analytics visitor tracking communication tools Best for: event planners and organizers that need efficient management of trade fairs and exhibitions.

FairManager is a specialised trade‑fair and exhibition stand management platform that offers a highly tailored set of tools for organisations responsible for large physical booths or exhibit spaces, combining features such as online registration, hotel‑block management, staff and guest coordination, meeting scheduling, mobile ordering, and real‑time visitor analytics into one integrated system. It is especially strong where the complexity of a large stand—hundreds of staff, multiple meeting zones, catering, in‑stand logistics and live adjustments—is high, with the vendor citing examples involving multi‑thousand‑square‑metre stands and several hundred employees, indicating strong credibility for large‑scale use. The platform is well engineered for the European exhibition context: features like a staff app with presence‑tracking and messaging, an in‑stand “info counter” or call system for guests, and modules for digital visitor‑flow analysis (with occupancy and hotspot sensing) are standout capabilities for operational-heavy stands. On the flip side, FairManager’s niche focus means that organisations with simpler event needs—say a standard conference or expo without a major stand infrastructure—may find much of the functionality excessive and the onboarding and cost heavier than necessary.
