ConsentEase vs Complianz

Complianz licenses its paid WordPress plugin annually: Free is €0 for unlimited installations; Personal is €35/year for one, Professional €109/year for up to five, and Agency €239/year for up to 25. There is no monthly paid billing, no trial, and a 30-day money-back guarantee.

There are no pageview or session limits. Free includes a banner, scanning, blocking, and basic compliance, while paid plans add Records of Consent, Google Consent Mode v2, Data Request Processing, A/B testing and statistics. WordPress multisite requires Agency.

The free plugin is therefore not equivalent to paid plans: the verified feature information does not include Consent Mode v2, geo-targeting, or consent records in Free. A separate Shopify app exists, but it is not the same WordPress plugin license.

ConsentEase is €9 per website/month or €90/year for websites 1–10; website 11 onward is €7/month or €70/year. The lower expansion rate is marginal, not retroactive, and a seven-day trial is available.

For annual billing, €90 per first-ten website is equivalent to €7.50 per site/month when divided over 12 months. The first ten sites remain at the standard rate even after a portfolio expands beyond ten.

Automatic scanning, blocking, banner customisation, Consent Mode v2, geo-targeting, consent analytics, audit-ready logs, priority support, no branding, and Privacy & Cookie Policy generation are listed on every plan with unlimited monthly views.

The scenarios use the least expensive paid Complianz license covering ordinary WordPress installations because they assume Records of Consent and Consent Mode v2 are required. If they are not, Complianz Free may cost €0.

One website is assumed to be one separately licensed WordPress installation. A multisite network is the exception: Agency is required even where an installation count might otherwise indicate Personal or Professional.

Taxes and separate products are excluded. Monthly ConsentEase totals represent 12 separate charges, while Complianz figures are annual licenses; no invented Complianz monthly equivalent is used. The annual stated-price differences are €55 for one site, €341 for five, and €661 for ten.

Complianz fits teams that administer every site in WordPress and prefer privacy settings in that dashboard. Its Professional and Agency caps can be substantially less expensive for WordPress agencies, and its free plugin is a genuine advantage for basic needs.

Agency makes the multisite boundary explicit, even when that means selecting a larger license than a simple public-site count implies. Teams that only need banner, scanner, blocker, and basic compliance can use Free across unlimited installations.

Paid Complianz also has the stronger verified statement for A/B testing, statistics, and Data Request Processing. High traffic does not change either product’s price through a traffic cap.

ConsentEase separates consent operations from a premium WordPress-plugin license and offers monthly billing. It can suit teams seeking a hosted, consistent workflow rather than installation and license boundaries.

Its listed feature set is not split between free and paid tiers: Consent Mode v2, geo-targeting, consent records, customisation, analytics, logs, support, and policy generation are included.

This is not a traffic-limit argument because both products have no pageview or session limits. It is an operating-consistency argument for teams that want the same listed function on each paid website and a trial before subscribing.

Inventory WordPress installations, multisite networks, and non-WordPress properties; document categories, services, regional behaviour, and paid dependencies before switching. Preserve consent evidence according to your obligations and do not assume historical records transfer.

If leaving Complianz paid, identify reliance on Data Request Processing or A/B testing because the canonical ConsentEase plan does not list equivalents. If leaving Free, establish whether Consent Mode v2, geo-targeting, and records are needed.
