The short version

  • Each has a real cost: 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.; Filevine there is no built-in general ledger or three-way trust reconciliation, so the firm still pays for and reconciles QuickBooks separately, which undermines the single-system argument used during the sale.
  • They diverge on capability: Didomi covers Google CMP certification, Filevine covers Project templates.

Where each one falls short

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

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.

Filevine

  • There is no built-in general ledger or three-way trust reconciliation, so the firm still pays for and reconciles QuickBooks separately, which undermines the single-system argument used during the sale.
  • Pricing is quoted per user with an implementation fee, so a firm with paralegals and case managers who log in occasionally pays full seat cost for light users.
  • Configuration flexibility becomes a liability without an internal owner, and firms that skip that role commonly end up with duplicate fields and reports nobody trusts.
  • It is built around contingency and litigation workflow, so corporate, conveyancing and other transactional practices find the project model a poor fit.
  • Implementation commonly runs weeks to months with paid professional services, and the annual contract starts before the firm is live, so the first year buys less usable time than it appears to.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Didomi: Is Didomi Google-certified?

Yes, for web, mobile and connected TV, and the certification has been renewed across multiple years.

Filevine: Does Filevine handle trust accounting?

No. It tracks case costs and settlement disbursement but has no legal general ledger, so trust accounting is done in QuickBooks or a dedicated legal accounting product.

Didomi: Does it support IAB TCF?

Yes, it is a registered TCF CMP, currently supporting version 2.2 and later revisions.

Filevine: Is pricing published?

No. Filevine quotes per user per month on an annual contract and adds an implementation fee, so compare total first-year cost rather than the seat rate.

Didomi: What does it cost?

Not published. Pricing is based on monthly unique visitors and quoted.

Filevine: Is it suitable for a two-person firm?

Rarely. The configuration overhead and contract minimums suit firms with dedicated intake and case management staff.

Didomi: Where is consent data stored?

Didomi is a French company and offers European storage, which matters for procurement teams weighing supervisory jurisdiction.
