Renting or buying a hologram?

Renting or buying a hologram? Discover which choice best suits your trade show, event, shop or showroom.
A hologram instantly grabs attention. It makes visitors stop, look and remember what they saw. But which suits your organisation better: renting or buying a hologram? Renting is usually attractive for temporary projects, while buying can be smarter for regular or permanent use.

When is renting a hologram the best choice?

Renting a hologram is a good choice for temporary applications, such as:

  • Trade shows and events
  • Product Launches
  • Conferences and presentations
  • Brand Activations
  • Temporary retail campaigns

You don't have to invest in your own hardware right away and have no worries about storage, transport or technical installation. Media Hologram can fully take care of the hologram setup, content and installation.

Moreover, you can choose a size per project that suits the location. For a small exhibition stand a compact solution is often enough, while a large entrance or presentation may call for a life-size hologram.

When is buying a hologram smarter?

Buying a hologram becomes interesting when you want to use the system regularly or permanently. Think of:

  • A showroom or experience center
  • A shop or shop window
  • An entrance or reception area
  • Recurring trade shows
  • A permanent presentation setting

After purchase you can keep using the hologram for different campaigns and products. The animations and messages can be renewed, so the system can be used again and again.

Buying requires a larger investment up front, but with regular use it can be cheaper than renting again each time. Do keep transport, storage, operation and maintenance in mind.
