Five Secure Privacy Business domains cost $295 per month, or $3,540 per year. The strongest alternatives deliver the same compliance coverage for far less. Cookiebot wins on scanner depth, CookieHub offers session-based pricing, and Consently leads on price at $199 per year for five domains. The per-domain billing model is not a hidden fee. It is the design, and it compounds fast.
This guide ranks seven alternatives by switching fit, comparing pricing, IAB TCF support, and multi-site costs side by side.
Below: a quick list, why people switch from Secure Privacy, the switching criteria, a comparison table, and detailed picks with migration guidance.
Best Secure Privacy Alternatives at a Glance
These seven tools are ordered by switching-fit tier first, then by independent review score within each tier. Each entry names the specific Secure Privacy problem it solves.
-
Consently: best for multi-site owners leaving per-domain billing, with every feature on every plan at $199/yr for five domains
-
Cookiebot: best for teams that need the deepest scanner and compliance credentials without the governance price, with IAB TCF on every paid plan
-
CookieHub: best for one high-traffic domain priced out of per-domain billing, with session-based metering across all domains
-
ConsentManager: best for publishers needing IAB TCF on every plan and a non-English admin, with A/B testing built in
-
CookieYes: best for single-site WordPress owners on a budget, with the largest WordPress install base
-
Termly: best for teams that need legal documents alongside consent, with ten attorney-crafted policy generators
-
Cookie Script: best for the lowest IAB TCF entry cost, with PLUS at EUR9/mo for two domains
Disclosure: This guide is written by the Consently team. Consently competes with Secure Privacy and every tool on this list. It is scored by the same rubric as everyone else. It ranks first because it is the only Tier 1 switching-fit answer to per-domain billing, not because it is self-ranked.
How we score: Every product carries the overall score from our published review methodology, which weights Compliance, Scanning, Banner, Setup, Pricing, Performance, and Support. The list is ordered by switching-fit tier, then by that score. Read the full method at how we review consent management software.
Why People Switch from Secure Privacy
Teams leave Secure Privacy primarily over per-domain billing that stacks fast and a $59-to-$249 plan gap with no middle option.
The switching pressure comes from four specific friction points, detailed below.
-
Per-domain billing stacks fast.
-
The $59-to-$249 plan gap.
-
Custom CSS gated to Business.
-
English-only admin dashboard.
Honest carve-out: Secure Privacy itself is excellent. It earned a 3.9 out of 5 in our full review. Its G2 (4.9) and Capterra (5.0) scores are the highest in the CMP category. Its cookie scanner is thorough, and its IAB TCF 2.3 certification is real. The Privacy Governance suite adds DSAR, DPIA, and Article 30 record-keeping that most CMP competitors do not touch. For a compliance team managing a single enterprise domain, that breadth is hard to beat.
The alternatives below are strongest when you manage three or more sites, need Custom CSS at a fair price, or want a non-English admin interface.
How to Choose a Secure Privacy Alternative
Identify which Secure Privacy switching trigger is actually driving your evaluation, then weigh alternatives against the criteria below. Each maps to a real reason teams leave.
Governance suite vs. cookie consent only
The deepest question first. If you need DSAR workflows, DPIA, and Article 30 records, Secure Privacy may still be the right tool. No alternative here replicates that GRC depth. If you only need a compliant cookie consent banner, every alternative below covers that ground at lower cost.
Pricing model: flat vs. per-domain vs. per-session
Match the billing model to your portfolio. Per-domain pricing (Secure Privacy, Cookiebot, CookieYes) stacks linearly with each site. Flat multi-domain bundles (Consently) hold a fixed price across several domains. Session-based metering (CookieHub) prices by visitor sessions rather than domain count, which often wins for one high-traffic site.
All features included vs. unlocking basics by tier
Secure Privacy gates IAB TCF to Small and Custom CSS to Business. Some alternatives gate compliance basics behind a mid-tier plan, while others include every feature on every plan. Confirm at which plan IAB TCF unlocks before you commit to a tool.
IAB TCF entry point
If you need IAB TCF 2.3, the question is at what plan it becomes available, and at what price. All seven alternatives support it. The entry tier varies from every plan (ConsentManager) to a mid-tier paid plan (CookieYes, CookieHub).
Secure Privacy vs. Alternatives: Comparison Table
The table below scores every alternative against Secure Privacy on the dimensions that drive switching: price, multi-site cost, IAB TCF access, and governance depth. Secure Privacy is the reference row.
| Product | Score | Pricing model | Entry paid (monthly) | 5 domains / year | IAB TCF 2.3 | GPC | Governance suite |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Secure Privacy (reference) | 3.9/5 | Per domain | $15/domain | $900 (Small) to $3,540 (Business) | Small+ | Manual enable | Business+ (add-on) |
| Consently | 3.7/5 | Flat (domains + pageviews) | $8.25/mo ($99/yr, 1 domain) | $199/yr (5 domains) | All plans | Not available | Not available |
| Cookiebot | 4.0/5 | Per domain + per subpage | €7/domain | ~€300 to €900/yr (size-dependent) | Premium | N/A | Not available |

Consently is the most direct answer to Secure Privacy's per-domain billing problem. It is the sole Tier 1 pick here: the only flat-priced tool that directly cancels the per-domain math driving teams off Secure Privacy.
It scores 3.7 out of 5 on the same rubric applied to every tool. It is the best fit for multi-site owners who want every feature on every plan without a tier gate. The Premium plan covers five domains and one million pageviews per month for $199 per year, or $16.50 per month.

-
All features on every plan, with no tier gating

A 14-day free trial with no credit card required

-

Basic runs $99/yr ($8.25/mo) for one domain and 100,000 pageviews per month. Premium runs $199/yr ($16.50/mo) for five domains and one million pageviews per month. Enterprise runs $499/yr ($41.50/mo) for ten domains.
Every feature is on every plan, and the 14-day trial requires no credit card. The price difference for five domains in Business-equivalent coverage is $3,341 per year in Consently's favor.
What Users Say
Consently's AppSumo launch generated 27 reviews averaging 4.0/5. Praise focuses on the flat all-inclusive pricing and the setup simplicity. Reviewers compare it favorably to CMPs where the most-needed feature is always one tier up.
Criticism covers scanner queue times during peak load and the absence of a CSV export for the cookie list. AppSumo buyers are deal-motivated, so feedback skews toward price-value impressions.
Migrating from Secure Privacy to Consently
-
Export your existing cookie declaration and consent categories from Secure Privacy's dashboard.
-
Install Consently's one-line script or the WordPress plugin, then rebuild your cookie categories using the scanner's auto-categorization output.
Your historical consent records from Secure Privacy cannot be imported, but Consently begins building a new consent log from the moment the banner goes live.
Multi-domain setup happens from a single dashboard: add each domain, run the scanner, and publish the banner without switching accounts.
You can start a Consently trial free with no credit card.

2. Cookiebot: Best for Scanner Depth and Compliance Credentials (4.0/5)
Cookiebot by Usercentrics is the highest-rated CMP in our review pool and the market benchmark for scanner accuracy. It is the strongest pick for Secure Privacy leavers who want a defensible, deeply certified compliance posture without paying for a full governance suite. The platform has 600,000-plus customers across 2.4 million websites, operates under ISO 27001 and ISO 27701 certifications, and holds Google CMP Gold status.

The most cited scanner accuracy in this pool, with automatic monthly scans
-
ISO 27001, ISO 27701, and Google CMP Gold status, deeper than Secure Privacy's stack on certifications
-
IAB TCF 2.3 on every Premium plan rather than a single higher tier
-
Very competitive for a single domain with under 350 pages
Cons
Cookiebot's weaknesses concentrate in its billing model.

Per-domain and per-subpage pricing can match or exceed Secure Privacy at five or more mid-size sites
-
A site with 350-plus subpages lands on the Medium or Large tier at €30 or €50 per domain
-
Custom CSS and A/B testing require the Usercentrics Advanced tier, priced by sales quote
-
No Global Privacy Control support and no Privacy Governance module
Pricing
The free tier covers one domain up to 50 subpages. Premium plans run from €7 to €90 per domain per month, tiered by subpage count. A site with 350-plus subpages lands on the Medium or Large tier at €30 or €50 per domain. IAB TCF 2.3 is on all Premium plans. Branding removal requires Premium.
What Users Say
Cookiebot is recommended most by compliance managers in regulated industries and teams with multi-jurisdiction presence.
Reviews praise the regulation depth and automatic scanner quality, while the most cited frustration is cost at multi-domain scale. It holds 4.2/5 on G2 from 178 reviews and 4.3/5 on Capterra from 52 reviews.
Migrating from Secure Privacy to Cookiebot
Cookiebot's scanner rebuilds your cookie inventory on install. Export your consent categories from Secure Privacy, then map them against Cookiebot's four default categories (necessary, preferences, statistics, and marketing) during setup. Cookie declarations transfer conceptually but not by file import.
Historical records from Secure Privacy cannot be migrated, so Cookiebot generates a new consent log from day one.

3. CookieHub: Best for High-Traffic Sites on Session Pricing (3.9/5)
CookieHub is the only platform in this pool that prices by session rather than domain. It is the best fit for Secure Privacy leavers running one or two high-traffic domains, where session metering often costs less than per-domain billing. The Business plan at €30 per month covers 120,000 to 1,000,000 sessions and all domains in your account.
Best for: Teams with one or two high-traffic domains whose session volume makes session-based pricing cheaper than per-domain billing.
Key Features
CookieHub's feature set centers on session metering and cross-domain consent.
-
Session-based metering rather than per-domain billing
-
IAB TCF 2.3, GPC, IAB GPP, and multi-domain cross-consent on Business
-
GPC available from the Starter plan (€6/mo)
-
Google Certified CMP Partner status and ISO 27001 certification
-
Clean banner builder with a GDPR-defensible consent log
-
Deploys via snippet or WordPress plugin
Pros
CookieHub's strengths are its pricing model and certifications.
-
Session pricing often costs less than per-domain billing for one or two high-traffic domains
-
Cross-domain consent lets one record serve all domains without per-domain re-scans
-
Google Certified CMP Partner status and ISO 27001 certification
-
A clean banner builder and a defensible consent log
Cons
CookieHub's weaknesses are tier gating and one documented integration issue.
-
IAB TCF 2.3 requires the Business plan (€30/mo)
-
DSAR management is Enterprise-only, not available on Business
-
Auto-blocking can malfunction with WP Rocket, LiteSpeed Cache, and Cloudflare Rocket Loader, per CookieHub's own documentation
-
For agencies with many low-traffic client sites, per-domain alternatives may be cheaper
Pricing
GPC is available from the Starter plan (€6/mo). IAB TCF 2.3 requires Business (€30/mo), which covers 120,000 to 1,000,000 sessions and all domains in your account. DSAR management is Enterprise-only. For teams with one or two high-traffic domains, session pricing often undercuts per-domain billing.
What Users Say
CookieHub reviews concentrate in two segments: agencies using the reseller program for client portfolios, and high-traffic EU sites benefiting from session-based billing. The session math is the consistent draw for content-heavy sites.
The most common critique is that the step from Business to a custom Enterprise contract is large, with no self-serve middle tier.
Migrating from Secure Privacy to CookieHub
Install CookieHub's script and run the initial scan. CookieHub does not import Secure Privacy's cookie declaration, but the scanner rebuilds the list automatically. The Business plan's cross-domain consent feature lets you serve one consent record across all your domains without per-domain re-scans.
WordPress users running WP Rocket, LiteSpeed Cache, or Cloudflare Rocket Loader should test the auto-blocker in staging before going live.
The session-pricing math is detailed in our full CookieHub review. For its peers, see other session-based and flat-rate options, or weigh it against us in Consently vs CookieHub.
4. ConsentManager: Best for Publishers Needing IAB TCF on Every Plan (3.9/5)
ConsentManager offers IAB TCF compatibility on every plan, including its free tier (3,000 views per month). It is the best fit for publishers and EU teams who need IAB TCF without a tier jump. Its non-English admin also addresses Secure Privacy's English-only dashboard. It holds dual IAB TCF v2.2 and v2.3 certification (IAB Europe CMP ID 31) and joined iubenda under team.blue in October 2022.
Best for: Publishers and EU teams who need IAB TCF on every plan, banner A/B testing, and a non-English admin interface.
Key Features
ConsentManager's feature set is built around publisher flexibility.
-
IAB TCF compatibility on every plan, including the free tier (3,000 views/mo)
-
A/B testing for consent banners available broadly across plans
-
IAB GPP support on the Essential plan (€59/mo, 3 websites or apps)
-
Deep API access for consent flow customization beyond the UI
-
White-label capability for resellers on the Professional plan (€219/mo)
-
EU server storage as standard
Pros
ConsentManager's strengths are publisher flexibility and an accessible TCF entry.
-
IAB TCF on every plan, including free, one of only two tools here to do so
-
Native banner A/B testing, which Secure Privacy does not offer
-
Deep API access for technical teams customizing the consent flow
-
EU data residency standard, with dual IAB TCF v2.2 and v2.3 certification
Cons
ConsentManager's weaknesses are price at scale and overage billing.
-
Three websites cost €59/mo (€708/yr) on Essential, comparable to two Secure Privacy Business domains ($1,416/yr)
-
Overage bills at €0.05 per 1,000 additional views on Essential, so high-traffic publishers should budget for it
-
No Privacy Governance suite (DSAR, DPIA, Article 30)
-
Starter (€23/mo) competes only at single-site scale
Pricing
The Starter plan runs €23 per month for a single website or app. The Essential plan at €59 per month covers three websites or apps and adds IAB GPP support. The Professional plan at €219 per month adds white-label capability. Overage bills at €0.05 per 1,000 additional views on Essential.
What Users Say
ConsentManager is most cited by German and EU publishers and agencies with a specific need for banner optimization data. The A/B testing feature earns consistent praise for shifting traffic to the better-performing banner variant automatically.
The most common complaint is the large price step from Starter, which lacks IAB TCF, up to Essential.
Migrating from Secure Privacy to ConsentManager
ConsentManager onboarding is wizard-driven. Create an account, select your regulation, add your domain, and run a crawl to rebuild the cookie inventory. Remove Secure Privacy's embed and insert ConsentManager's consent management code, then configure Google Consent Mode v2 via the GTM integration.
Historical Secure Privacy consent records cannot be imported, so returning visitors re-consent.
The publisher and app coverage are assessed in our full ConsentManager review. To see how it sits among rivals, browse other ConsentManager alternatives, or compare it with us in Consently vs ConsentManager.
5. CookieYes: Best for Single-Site WordPress Owners on a Budget (3.8/5)

-
A five-site Pro setup costs $1,500 per year, versus $199/yr for Consently's five-site Premium
-
Pageview overage charges at $0.30 per 1,000 on Basic and Pro plans
-
No Privacy Governance suite
Pricing
The free plan covers 5,000 pageviews per month. Paid plans are per-domain: Basic at $10/domain/month, Pro at $25/domain/month (adds IAB TCF 2.3 and GPC), and Ultimate at $55/domain/month. A five-site Pro setup costs $1,500 per year. Pageview overage charges at $0.30 per 1,000 on Basic and Pro.
What Users Say

It holds 4.8/5 on G2 from 298 reviews and 4.8/5 on Trustpilot from 330 reviews.
Migrating from Secure Privacy to CookieYes
Install the CookieYes WordPress plugin and run the auto-scan to rebuild your cookie inventory. CookieYes cannot import Secure Privacy's consent records, so the new consent log starts from the date of installation. Geotargeting and IAB TCF require upgrading to Pro before activation.
The WordPress-first setup and overage traps are covered in our full CookieYes review. For its competitive set, see other CookieYes alternatives, or compare the two of us in Consently vs CookieYes.
6. Termly: Best for Legal Documents Alongside Consent (3.8/5)
Termly's differentiator is legal documents. It is the best fit for Secure Privacy leavers who need a consent banner and a policy document set in one place. They avoid paying for a separate document service. The paid tier bundles ten attorney-crafted policies: privacy policies, terms of service, cookie policies, and EULA templates.
Best for: Founders and small legal teams that need a broad legal document suite bundled with their cookie consent tool.
Key Features
Termly's feature set is anchored by its legal document generators.
-
Ten attorney-crafted policy generators: privacy policy, terms of service, cookie policy, EULA, and more
-
IAB TCF 2.3, GPC, multi-language banners, and regional consent rules on Pro+ ($15/site/mo annual)
-
Free plan covering one site with 10,000 banner views per month and quarterly scans
-
Starter at $10/site/month (annual) lifting the view limit to 50,000 with monthly scans

-
Deploys via snippet or WordPress plugin
Pros
Termly's strengths are document breadth and US-law coverage.
-
The broadest legal document suite here: ten generators bundled with consent
-
Documents maintained for compliance, with GPC honored where law requires
-
A genuine free plan covering one site and 10,000 banner views per month
-
Strong coverage of US state laws that other CMPs do not handle
Cons
Termly's drawbacks are tier gating and per-site pricing.
-
IAB TCF 2.3 and multi-language support require Pro+ ($15/site/mo)
-
Per-site billing means a five-site operator pays five times the listed rate
-
GPC must be manually enabled in the Pro+ dashboard
-
No session-based or flat-rate option: every additional site requires a new license
Pricing
The free plan covers one site with 10,000 banner views per month and quarterly scans. The Starter plan at $10/site/month (annual) lifts the limit to 50,000 views and monthly scans. The Pro+ plan at $15/site/month (annual) adds IAB TCF 2.3, GPC, multi-language banners, regional consent rules, and unlimited banner views. Five Pro+ sites cost $900/yr, versus $3,540/yr for five Secure Privacy Business domains.
What Users Say
Termly reviews heavily cite policy generation quality and phone support accessibility. Users with US-centric compliance needs praise the coverage of state laws that other CMPs do not handle.
The most common criticism is per-site pricing at scale and the limited features on the Starter plan.
It holds 4.3/5 on G2 from 45 reviews and 4.7/5 on Capterra from 80 reviews.
Migrating from Secure Privacy to Termly
Create a Termly account, add your domain, and run the scanner to build your cookie list. Generate your policies, then embed Termly's script or install the WordPress plugin. Configure Google Consent Mode v2 via GTM, and configure matching cookie categories from your Secure Privacy setup.
Historical Secure Privacy consent records cannot be imported, so returning visitors re-consent.
The legal document bundle is detailed in our full Termly review. For its peers, see other Termly alternatives, or compare it against us in Consently vs Termly.
7. Cookie Script: Best for the Lowest IAB TCF Entry Cost (4.0/5)
Cookie Script earns the highest technical score in this pool, tied at 4.0. It is the best fit for Secure Privacy leavers who want IAB TCF certification at the lowest possible entry cost on a small footprint. It combines a 100,000-plus cookie database, accurate auto-categorization, and IAB TCF 2.3 certification, operated by Objectis Ltd in Lithuania.
Best for: Micro-budget teams running one or two domains that want certified IAB TCF at the cheapest entry point.
Key Features
Cookie Script's feature set centers on a deep scanner at a low price.
-
A 100,000-plus cookie database with accurate auto-categorization
-
IAB TCF 2.3 certification, gated to the PLUS plan

Four plan tiers: FREE (2 domains, 10,000 pageviews), LITE (€6/mo, 2 domains), STANDARD (€7/mo), and PLUS (€9/mo)
-
Consent recording and cookie banner analytics on PLUS
-
Per-domain pricing across all tiers
Pros
Cookie Script's strengths are scanner quality and a low TCF floor.
-
The highest technical score in this pool, tied at 4.0
-
PLUS at €9/mo for two domains is the cheapest IAB TCF entry point in this list
-
A 100,000-plus cookie database with accurate auto-categorization
-
A genuine free tier covering two domains and 10,000 pageviews
Cons
Cookie Script's weaknesses are tier gating and scaling cost.
-
IAB TCF 2.3 is not available below PLUS
-
Consent recording and cookie banner analytics are also PLUS-only
-
Scaling beyond two domains requires a higher-volume tier, as all plans are per-domain
-
No Privacy Governance suite
Pricing
The FREE plan covers two domains and 10,000 pageviews. LITE runs €6/mo for two domains, STANDARD €7/mo, and PLUS €9/mo. IAB TCF 2.3, consent recording, and cookie banner analytics are gated to PLUS. PLUS at €9/mo for two domains is the cheapest IAB TCF entry point in this list.
What Users Say
Cookie Script reviews are dominated by small site owners and budget-conscious agencies who want IAB TCF without a premium price. The deep cookie database and accurate auto-categorization earn repeated praise. The most common critique is that IAB TCF and consent recording sit behind the PLUS tier, so the cheapest plans lack a complete audit trail.
Migrating from Secure Privacy to Cookie Script
Create your domain in Cookie Script and run the automatic scanner to rebuild your cookie categories. Remove Secure Privacy's embed and insert Cookie Script's script tag, then enable IAB TCF 2.3 on the PLUS plan. Configure Google Consent Mode v2 via GTM.
Historical Secure Privacy consent records cannot be imported, so returning visitors re-consent.
The technical scoring is laid out in our full Cookie Script review. For its competitive set, see other Cookie Script alternatives, or compare it with us in Consently vs Cookie Script.
Which Secure Privacy Alternative Is Right for You?
The right choice depends on why you are leaving and what you are moving toward.
-
If you need the strongest scanner and compliance depth: Cookiebot (4.0) has the market’s most cited scanner accuracy, ISO 27001 and ISO 27701, and 600,000-plus customers. Expect per-domain and per-subpage costs.
-
If you run one high-traffic domain and want session-based pricing: CookieHub’s Business tier (€30/mo) covers all domains on one plan, with IAB TCF 2.3 and GPC.
-
If you need IAB TCF on every plan including the smallest: ConsentManager’s free and Starter tiers include IAB TCF compatibility, and Essential (€59/mo) adds IAB GPP and multi-site coverage.
-
If you are WordPress-first, single site, and price-sensitive: CookieYes’s free plan covers 5,000 pageviews and the plugin installs in one click. Upgrade to Pro for IAB TCF 2.3.
-
If you need legal documents alongside a consent banner: Termly bundles ten attorney-crafted policies with the Pro+ plan at $15/site/month.
-
If you want the lowest IAB TCF entry cost: Cookie Script PLUS at €9/mo for two domains is the cheapest certified entry point here.
-
If you are leaving over per-domain billing: Consently’s Premium covers five domains for $199/yr with all features included, versus $3,540/yr for five Secure Privacy Business domains.
-
If you need to keep Privacy Governance features (DSAR, DPIA, Article 30): no platform here replicates Secure Privacy’s GRC module at a comparable depth. Keep Business for governance on your core domain, and run a cheaper CMP like Consently or CookieYes on lower-priority sites.
If the per-domain bill is what is pushing you out, Consently is the most direct fix. You get five domains, every feature, and a 14-day trial for $199 a year, with no credit card needed.

CookieHub, CookieYes, Termly, and Cookie Script each fit narrower needs.
Is there a free alternative to Secure Privacy?
Several alternatives have free tiers. CookieYes covers up to 5,000 pageviews per month. ConsentManager's free plan covers one site and 3,000 views per month with IAB TCF. Cookie Script's free plan covers two domains and 10,000 pageviews per month. Consently offers a 14-day free trial on all plans. None of these free tiers include IAB TCF 2.3 except ConsentManager.
Which Secure Privacy alternative supports IAB TCF 2.3?
All seven alternatives in this list support IAB TCF 2.3, though the plan tier where it unlocks varies. Consently and ConsentManager include it on every plan. Cookie Script requires PLUS (€9/mo). CookieHub requires Business (€30/mo). CookieYes and Termly gate it to their mid-tier paid plans.
How do I migrate from Secure Privacy to Consently?
Export your cookie categories from Secure Privacy's dashboard. Install Consently's one-line embed script or the WordPress plugin on each domain. Run Consently's auto-scanner to rebuild the cookie inventory on each site. Assign categories, publish the banner, and verify consent logs are recording. Historical Secure Privacy consent records cannot be imported.
Do Secure Privacy alternatives offer Privacy Governance features?
None of the seven alternatives offer a Privacy Governance suite comparable to Secure Privacy's DSAR management, DPIA workflows, and Article 30 records of processing. These features are the core reason to stay on Secure Privacy if your compliance team relies on them. If you only need cookie consent, any alternative here covers the CMP side at lower cost.
Can I switch from Secure Privacy without losing my consent records?
No. Consent records from Secure Privacy are stored in Secure Privacy's system and cannot be exported in a format another CMP can import. Your historical records remain in Secure Privacy's dashboard for the duration of your subscription. The new CMP starts a fresh consent log from the installation date. Export and archive your Secure Privacy consent log before ending your subscription.
Which alternative is cheapest for five domains?
Consently Premium costs $199/yr for five domains with all features included, the lowest five-domain price in this comparison. CookieHub's Business plan (€30/mo, approximately €360/yr) covers all domains on a session-based model, making it competitive for teams with a defined session budget. Termly's Pro+ at five licenses costs $900/yr. Cookiebot's cost for five domains varies by subpage count but typically exceeds Consently at comparable feature levels.
Is Consently a good replacement for Secure Privacy?
For cookie consent management, yes. Consently covers IAB TCF 2.3, Google Consent Mode v2, geotargeting, 35-language banners, and cookie auto-blocking on every plan. Flat multi-site pricing is significantly cheaper than Secure Privacy at three or more domains. Two gaps remain: Consently does not detect Global Privacy Control signals, and it has no Privacy Governance module. Teams that rely on Secure Privacy's DSAR, DPIA, Article 30, or vendor risk management features should keep them.
