Fourteen honest, fact-checked comparisons against the cookie consent platforms teams switch from most. Same questions every time: what it costs, what's included, and what happens when you outgrow the free tier.
Every page below covers the same ground: pricing, IAB TCF and Google Consent Mode v2 support, CMS coverage, self-hosting, EU data residency and what actually happens when you switch. We link straight to each vendor's own pricing where we can, and flag anywhere their public information was unclear or unconfirmed — no invented numbers.
Cookiebot's price scales with your subpage count; Conzent's is set by how many sites you run.
IAB TCF is a Pro-tier upsell on CookieYes; it's included on every Conzent plan.
OneTrust is quote-only, enterprise-priced; Conzent's per-site tiers are public.
Complianz is WordPress-first with a separate Shopify product; Conzent runs natively across seven platforms from one account.
TCF and Advanced Consent Mode v2 are commonly gated to Termly's Pro+ tier; both are free on every Conzent plan.
Usercentrics prices by monthly sessions and domains; Conzent's price doesn't move with your traffic.
iubenda meters by pageviews plus a separate consent-storage add-on; Conzent is flat per site.
Borlabs has no free tier and, per independent testing, no IAB TCF; Conzent has both.
Axeptio's free tier caps at 200 visitors/month; Conzent's self-hosted option has no cap at all.
Two Danish companies, two different bets: paid-only SaaS vs. free self-hosting.
Osano's free tier jumps straight to $199/month; Conzent's tiers scale gradually.
Genuinely open source, but WordPress-only; Conzent's OCI is open source and runs anywhere.
Didomi is enterprise, quote-only; Conzent's tiers are on the pricing page.
Their free banner skips IAB TCF entirely and has no Google Tag Manager template; Conzent ships both, plus a real consent log.
