The short version

  • Only Termly has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Envysion envysion now sits inside Motorola Solutions alongside Avigilon and Pelco, which overlap with it in retail video, so buyers should establish which platform Motorola intends to invest in before committing to a multi-year multi-site agreement.; Termly a standard plan licenses one website, so an agency or a business with several brand domains multiplies the headline price by the number of sites and the cheap option stops being cheap at four or five domains.
  • They diverge on capability: Envysion covers Point of sale exception reporting, Termly covers Policy generator.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 1 September 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Envysion

  • Envysion now sits inside Motorola Solutions alongside Avigilon and Pelco, which overlap with it in retail video, so buyers should establish which platform Motorola intends to invest in before committing to a multi-year multi-site agreement.
  • Point of sale integration is per till system, so a chain running two or three POS platforms across acquired brands may find exception reporting works properly in only some of its stores.
  • No pricing is published and it is sold as a per-site managed service, usually on a multi-year agreement, so a chain closing or refranchising stores mid-term can be paying for locations it no longer operates.
  • It is built specifically for till-level retail and restaurant loss prevention and is a poor fit for campus, industrial or office security, so an operator with a mixed estate needs a second platform for the head office.
  • Each site typically needs recording hardware installed, which makes rollout an install project per location rather than a software subscription, and refreshing that hardware is a periodic capital event the subscription does not cover.

Termly

  • A standard plan licenses one website, so an agency or a business with several brand domains multiplies the headline price by the number of sites and the cheap option stops being cheap at four or five domains.
  • Generated policies are templates conditioned on questionnaire answers, so they describe the data practices you claimed rather than the ones your code performs, and a regulator comparing the policy to actual tracking finds the gap not the vendor.
  • Banner view limits apply on the lower tiers, and a site that spikes in traffic can exhaust its allowance mid month, which is the worst possible moment for consent handling to degrade.
  • It covers websites well but has little for mobile apps, so a company with an iOS and Android app alongside its site needs a second consent mechanism and a second consent record.
  • There is no data mapping, subject rights automation or vendor inventory, so any company that grows into real privacy programme obligations outgrows Termly entirely rather than upgrading within it.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Envysion: Who owns Envysion?

Motorola Solutions. It sits in the same video security portfolio as Avigilon, Pelco and Openpath.

Termly: Does one Termly plan cover all my websites?

No. A standard plan licenses one website. Multiple domains need multiple licences or an agency arrangement, and this is the single most common surprise on the bill.

Envysion: What makes it different from a cloud camera service?

The point of sale integration. Exception reports link a void, refund or discount directly to the clip of that transaction, which is what makes multi-site review practical.

Termly: Are the generated policies legally sufficient?

They are templates conditioned on your answers and are not legal advice. They are proportionate for a simple site and inadequate where actual data flows are complex or regulated.

Envysion: Is pricing published?

No. It is quoted per site as a managed service, typically on a multi-year agreement.

Termly: Is there a genuinely free plan?

Yes, one basic policy, one site, 10,000 monthly banner views and quarterly cookie scans, with no card required.

Envysion: Will it work with my point of sale system?

Integration is built per POS platform, so confirm your specific system and version before buying, especially across acquired brands.

Termly: Does it handle US state privacy opt-outs?

Yes, including a do not sell or share mechanism and regional rule sets, alongside GDPR consent for EU visitors.
