VS Splynx

Everything Splynx charges extra for, included in one plan.

Splynx's entry license starts at $255/month before paid add-on modules. ISPbox starts at $25/month with maps, monitoring, IPAM, inventory and the API included - and imports your Splynx backup with a dry run and rollback.

01 What it costs to start

Splynx sells one entry license sized for up to 400 subscribers, so a 40-subscriber ISP pays the same as one ten times its size. ISPbox prices start where small ISPs actually start.

Splynx

$255/mo

Entry license plus maintenance, billed for up to 400 subscribers - whatever your actual size. Add-on modules cost extra.

  • + ACS server from $100/mo
  • + Whalebone filter from $80/mo
  • + dedicated support $70/h

ISPbox

$25/mo

Monthly minimum with every feature included - maps, monitoring, IPAM, inventory, API. $1 per subscriber, dropping to $0.40 past 50 and $0.30 past 500.

+ nothing - support, updates and every module included

A 40-subscriber ISP pays $40/month instead of $255 - and even at the full 400 subscribers the Splynx license assumes, ISPbox is $190.

03 Less to bolt on, more in the box

A modern panel where the advanced features are part of the plan, not separate purchases.

01

No paid add-on modules

Network map, monitoring, IPAM, inventory, alerts, messaging and the REST API are entitlements inside your plan, not separate line items.

02

Modern UI and native apps

A fast, clean panel plus a technician Field app and a branded subscriber app, all first-party.

03

Guided Splynx import

Upload a Splynx ZIP backup, run a dry-run preview, import leads, finance and tickets, and roll back if needed.

AI Built-in MCP server

Your ISP panel now speaks AI. Splynx doesn't.

Every ISPbox workspace ships a built-in MCP server: connect Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor with one URL and let AI diagnose "why is this customer offline?", warn everyone behind a failing tower, read your LibreNMS/Zabbix alerts and run your billing reports - under each staff member's own permissions, with a full audit trail.

05 Splynx alternative FAQ
01 Is there a cheaper alternative to Splynx?
Yes. Splynx's entry license is $255/month, sized for up to 400 subscribers regardless of how many you actually have. ISPbox bills per subscriber from a $25/month minimum - $1 each for your first 50, $0.40 to 500, $0.30 beyond - so a 40-subscriber ISP pays $40 instead of $255.
02 Can I migrate my Splynx data to ISPbox?
Yes. Upload a Splynx ZIP backup, run a dry-run preview to see exactly what will be created, then import clients, services, finance, tickets and leads. If anything looks off, roll the import back with one click.
03 Which Splynx paid add-ons are included in ISPbox plans?
Network maps, monitoring, IPAM, inventory, alerts, messaging and the REST API are plan entitlements in ISPbox, not separate purchases. Splynx sells several of these as paid add-on modules on top of the license.
04 Does ISPbox support MikroTik like Splynx does?
Yes. ISPbox manages MikroTik RouterOS for PPPoE and Hotspot with RADIUS authentication, live speed changes via CoA without dropping sessions, WireGuard tunnel management and IPv6 prefix delegation.
05 Is there a subscriber limit on the $25 plan?
No. $25 is simply the monthly minimum and covers your first 25 subscribers. Beyond that you pay $1 per subscriber, dropping to $0.40 after 50 and $0.30 after 500 - a 100-subscriber ISP pays $70/month. Every feature is included at every size.
