Splash makes gorgeous, on-brand event pages and guest lists. Novex includes branded microsites too — plus everything that happens after RSVP: check-in, badges, comms, CRM, budgets, and client invoicing. Here's the honest split, and where each is the right call.

Splash and Novex overlap on the event page. Where they diverge is everything around it:
Branded microsites plus the full operation — CRM, quotations and invoicing, registration, WhatsApp/email, kiosk check-in and badges, budgets and P&L — on published pricing.
A design-led event-marketing platform known for beautiful, on-brand event pages, program templating, and marketing-stack integrations.

Splash's paid pricing was not clearly published in July 2026 checks; the range shown is publicly reported and should be verified with Splash directly. Figures are re-verified quarterly. The Novex column reflects its own product and published pricing.
Splash is the stronger choice when on-brand page production at scale is the whole job. If you're a large field-marketing or demand-gen team running a high volume of events and your bottleneck is keeping every event page consistent with brand governance — with deep Salesforce and Marketo wiring feeding the marketing funnel — Splash's design system and templating are genuinely excellent and purpose-built for that. Choose Novex when the event is an operation, not just a page: when you need check-in and badges on the day, WhatsApp and email comms, a real CRM, per-event budgets, and — especially for agencies — the ability to quote and invoice the client from the same platform that ran the event. Novex includes the branded microsite; Splash doesn't include the operation.
Splash offers a limited free tier and quote-based paid tiers; public pricing was thin in July 2026 checks, with reported figures ranging from the low thousands to tens of thousands per year depending on scale. Request a quote from Splash and compare it against Novex's published tiers.
Yes. Novex includes branded microsites for your event — your logo, colors, and (on Aurora) your own domain with no Novex chrome — plus the registration, check-in, and comms that follow.
Novex has its own built-in CRM (leads, deals, clients) and, on Aurora, a REST API and webhooks for custom integrations. Splash's native Salesforce/Marketo connectors are deeper today — if that wiring is central to your funnel, weigh it carefully.
Yes, and it's a differentiator: turn a lead into a quotation, then a tax-compliant invoice with Saudi Phase-2 e-invoicing, and track the event's budget and ex-VAT P&L — all in the same system that ran the event. Splash has no client-billing concept.
On-site check-in and badge printing aren't Splash's focus — it's built around the event page and guest list. Novex includes a check-in kiosk (web plus a native Windows app) and badge printing from the Spectrum plan up.
Both offer a free entry point. Novex's free Beam plan runs a full event for up to 100 attendees with confirmations, e-badges, QR check-in, and a public agenda; Splash's free tier centers on basic event pages. Higher Novex tiers add WhatsApp, kiosk, CRM, and white-label, and each starts with a 14-day free trial — no card.
