Verified User Program Manager Chose Splash Event Marketing Platform I prefer Splash to Eventbrite because the UI is so much more beautiful.

Incentivized Helpful? Bridget Falk Field Market Manager Chose Splash Event Marketing Platform I like Splash better than Marketo for registration pages because Marketo doesn't have all the same functionality.

User Testimonials
	Splash Event Marketing Platform
Likelihood to Recommend	Cvent When we first started using Splash Event Marketing Platform, the platform showed great promise and worked well for our team’s needs. However, over the past year, we’ve encountered issue after issue—many of which are described by support as problems “no one else has ever experienced.” Unfortunately, this has happened frequently, making it difficult to trust the platform for consistent execution.

Pros	Cvent Templates - Splash allowed Hubspot to create page templates for all of our Hubspot User Group Meet Up registration pages. So while we're just one city that hosts meet-ups, utilizing these templates helps ensure that every city's pages look the same and are able to be navigated in the same way. Check In - Their app is really nice for check-in on the day of the event. I can have any co-worker log into the app on their phone and they're ready to help me manage the event. The app definitely makes our check-in process more simplified. Managing RSVPs - The ability to cut off registration and start a wait list is critical for our events. We get a handful of cancellations in the week before the event (as I'm sure every other event marketer does) and we can start moving our way down the waitlist to fill our events up!

Cons	Cvent When designing a landing page for an event, the functionality of the layout page is quite finicky. I would love to see the ability to add features to certain text boxes become more fluid. The formatting across the layout page is not always consistent, specifically text sizing. I had an issue with an account, and the support team took an extremely long time (2+ months) to produce a remedy for the issue I was experiencing. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	Cvent Because easy to interface and easy to manage Splash platform and individual event platform and easy to integrate with third party software such as Adobe Marketo and others softwares. Easy to maintain status and easy to relate with Salesforce campaign through Marketo . Useful in lead capturing and generation and so on we can enable business through splash.

Usability	Cvent The platform works, and it is a good system. I think there is always room for improvement. and I would like to see them up their client resolutions when it comes to problems with using the system. and see them take a more aggressive approach to addressing the clients changing needs Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Support Rating	Cvent We love working with our account manager and priority support to answer questions efficiently and speedily. Our account manager works with us on larger and bigger picture initiatives for our instance, where the priority support is always there when you're stuck with a feature or setup, it's been great to share this resource with our global network of hosts internal and external to the company. Caitlin Teed Experiential Marketing Manager Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Cvent Despite not being a very old company, Splash does not feel like a buggy-startup in Beta. I've used other platforms like Eventbrite that don't have the functionality Splash does, and other comparable companies to Splash that are painful to use on the backend. I would also say that the Splash team and culture is a plus. They offer a lot of training tutorials and every call is always a fun one with their team. Incentivized Carla Culos Manager, Brand Experience Read full review
Return on Investment	Cvent It helps me manage a number of events that I would not otherwise be able to make invitations for, manage rsvps, and do check ins. We used a more expensive product previously but it had fewer features so this is definitely an upgrade. Using Splash saves me time from needing to follow up with guests. I also love the "send later" feature for email. The support staff make this product super valuable as I am able to accomplish more with their help.
