The short version
- Only Cookiebot has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
- Each has a real cost: Cookiebot pricing is per domain and banded by subpage count, so an organisation with many brand domains or a large content site pays many multiples of the 7 euro headline, and the bands are counted from the scan rather than from what you think you publish.; Didomi pricing is based on monthly unique visitors and is not published, so a large publisher cannot estimate cost before entering a sales process, and traffic spikes translate directly into billing surprises.
- They diverge on capability: Cookiebot covers Automated cookie scanning, Didomi covers Google CMP certification.
- Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Cookiebot
- Pricing is per domain and banded by subpage count, so an organisation with many brand domains or a large content site pays many multiples of the 7 euro headline, and the bands are counted from the scan rather than from what you think you publish.
- Enterprise features such as single sign-on, banner A and B testing and a dedicated account manager sit on Usercentrics Web CMP rather than on Cookiebot, so growing out of Cookiebot means migrating to a sibling product with its own dashboard and contract.
- Prior blocking depends on Cookiebot recognising the script, and custom or first-party tags frequently need manual tagging, which means a site can believe it is blocking trackers when it is not until someone audits it.
- Scans crawl a limited number of subpages per band, so trackers that only appear on deep or gated pages can go undiscovered and unblocked between scans.
- The free tier carries Cookiebot branding and is limited to one domain and 50 subpages, which makes it a demonstration rather than a workable option for anything but a brochure site.
Didomi
- Pricing is based on monthly unique visitors and is not published, so a large publisher cannot estimate cost before entering a sales process, and traffic spikes translate directly into billing surprises.
- Consent banners depress measurable traffic by design, and Didomi cannot prevent that, so publishers moving from a non-compliant banner should expect an immediate drop in tracked users and attributable conversions.
- Certification is a moving target: Google and IAB update requirements periodically and each version change forces integration work on your side, not only on the vendor's.
- Connected TV consent collection depends on the app platform and remote control interface, and implementations are considerably more involved than a web banner, often requiring per-platform development.
- The wider privacy suite beyond consent is thinner than dedicated privacy platforms, so an organisation needing data subject rights automation and data mapping usually buys a second vendor anyway.
