ConsentX vs Cookiebot
A popular cookie-consent and scanning tool focused mainly on the banner.
Why teams are switching now
After Cookiebot's 2025 price increases and automatic plan upgrades when a site crosses pageview or sub-page thresholds, many teams want predictable pricing. ConsentX has a free plan and flat tiers, with no surprise mid-month upgrade.
