"Straightforward GTM Setup, Great Support | My First-Choice CMP"

5/5

What do you like best about Cookiebot by Usercentrics?

Straightforward to set up in Google Tag Manager. It offers a lot of different options in the CMP Template and is simple to use when configuring tags through cookie_consent_update. Support is also great and quick whenever I have questions, whether they’re technical or admin-related. Overall, it’s just a great product that makes life so much easier :-) I’ve rolled out Cookiebot to multiple client accounts as well, so it’s definitely my first choice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cookiebot by Usercentrics?

Downsides may have been waiting for a payment to come through after somebody clicked onto my affiliate link, but to my knowing they have changed/are changing this now. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hi there,

Thank you for the detailed review. It’s great to hear that the Google Tag Manager setup was straightforward, that the CMP template gives you plenty of options for configuring tags, and that Cookiebot has become your first choice across the client accounts you’ve rolled it out to. We’re also glad the support team has been quick on both technical and admin questions, and we’ll pass your kind words along to them.

We also appreciate you mentioning the wait for an affiliate payment to come through. Your feedback on that is noted.

Kind regards,

"Easy Google Tag Manager Integration"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Cookiebot by Usercentrics?

I like the ease of integration with Google Tag Manager. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cookiebot by Usercentrics?

The setup process could be more intuitive, particularly for users who are not familiar with cookie regulations or website tracking technologies. Clearer guidance on configuring consent settings, identifying third-party cookies, and integrating analytics tools would improve the user experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Cookiebot by Usercentrics solving and how is that benefiting you?

Cookiebot helps solve the challenge of managing website cookies, tracking technologies and visitor consent. It automatically scans my website for cookies, helps prevent non-essential tracking before consent is given, and keeps consent records to support compliance with privacy regulations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Sayeh Afshar of Cookiebot by Usercentrics

Hi Wayne,

Thank you for the review. We’re glad the Google Tag Manager integration was easy to set up, and that Cookiebot helps you manage cookies and visitor consent. The automatic website scans, the blocking of non-essential tracking until consent is given, and the consent records that support your compliance work are core parts of what we aim to deliver.

We appreciate your thoughts on the setup experience. Guidance around consent settings, third-party cookie identification, and analytics integrations can be a lot to take in, especially for those new to cookie regulations. We’ll share your feedback with the relevant teams. Our help center also has material on these areas, including guides on understanding the scan report and getting started with the Manager.

Thanks again for sharing your experience.

Kind regards,

"Easy, Flexible Way to Handle Privacy Regulations with Cookiebot"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Cookiebot by Usercentrics?

It takes quite some work to apply to all (privacy) regulations; therefore, we choose Cookiebot as our partner to get this set up in an easy and flexible way! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cookiebot by Usercentrics?

We needed help from our partner to set it up, but at the moment we can handle it ourselves. It could be a bit more intuitive when setting it up as a start. Make it simple and easy to understand! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hi Laurens,

5/5

What do you like best about Cookiebot by Usercentrics?

What I like most about Cookiebot is how easy it makes managing cookie consent on our website. The platform is straightforward to use, and the automated cookie scanning saves time while helping us stay on top of GDPR requirements. It’s a useful tool for managing consent without adding unnecessary work for our team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cookiebot by Usercentrics?

There isn’t much to dislike, but some of the settings can be a little confusing initially, especially if you’re not particularly technical. It can take some time to get everything set up correctly, but once it’s running, it requires very little ongoing maintenance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Cookiebot by Usercentrics solving and how is that benefiting you?

Cookiebot helps us manage cookie consent and stay on top of GDPR requirements without having to handle everything manually. The automated scanning saves us time, while the consent banner gives website visitors control over their cookie preferences. Overall, it makes managing website compliance much easier and allows us to focus on other areas of the business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Compliance with Easy Setup"

5/5

What do you like best about Cookiebot by Usercentrics?

I like the easy-to-implement, low-code process of Cookiebot by Usercentrics, along with their generous free tier, which allowed us to later transition to a paid tier as we proved the application met our needs. I appreciate how easy it is to adjust settings without the need for extensive coding. I also like that it's very much a set it and forget it application, requiring no regular maintenance. Additionally, the initial setup was very easy, which was a secondary reason we selected the application, with price being the primary factor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cookiebot by Usercentrics?

The free tier was limited and like everything, prices continue to rise. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Hanna Sternkopf of Cookiebot by Usercentrics

Hello Jose,

Thank you for your review! It's great to hear that the low-code setup and minimal maintenance are working well for your team - we're glad the free tier gave you the space to test before committing.

We appreciate your feedback on pricing. If you ever have questions about your plan or need help optimizing your setup, our support team is happy to assist at support@cookiebot.com.

"Great Cookie Reports, But Cookiebot Is Very Expensive"

2.5/5

What do you like best about Cookiebot by Usercentrics?

The Cookiescan report is very detailed and useful. I also like the ease of use of the cookiebot management platform which makes it easy to edit and test the cookie banner Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cookiebot by Usercentrics?

Number one is the high cost. I have compared to some other competitors and realised that Cookiebot is VERY expensive Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Sayeh Afshar of Cookiebot by Usercentrics

Hi Jim,

Thank you for the review. It’s good to hear that the scan report gives you a detailed view of what’s running on your site, and that the management platform makes it easy to edit and test your banner before it goes live. Streamlining the consent process for your team is what Cookiebot is designed to do.

We also appreciate you sharing your view on cost, especially after comparing against other providers. Our pricing is based on the number of subpages detected per domain, and plans adjust automatically when a site exceeds the threshold of a given tier. This is outlined on our pricing page.

Kind regards,

"Updated Review of Cookiebot for my preferred cookie solution"

4/5

What do you like best about Cookiebot by Usercentrics?

Now even easier to implement than previously with the new plugins and so on they have now. I used the one for Wix and was just a toggle on. Personally I like the usercentrics design similarly or better than the cookiebot Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cookiebot by Usercentrics?

I had a case where I had one cost on something like 8 euro and then added another domain and suddenly the cost went a lot more up, to like 40-50 euro. So didn’t understand this and the new site had less subpages than the original one. Also there are many competitiors now and many embedded cookie consent options for free in the website builders Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very Simple Setup for a Must-Have CMP"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Cookiebot by Usercentrics?

It is very simple to set up. A CMP is a must-have but it doesn't bring in revenue. Who wants to spend time on non-profitable activities? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cookiebot by Usercentrics?

The instructions could be clearer, if you want to go beyond out-of-the-box. Not just the technical how2's, but also what is actually possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Sayeh Afshar of Cookiebot by Usercentrics

edit

Hi Richard,

Thank you for the review. It’s good to hear that setup was quick, since a consent solution should take as little of your team’s time as possible.

We also appreciate your feedback on the instructions for going beyond the default setup, both the technical steps and the sense of what’s possible. Cookiebot supports full HTML, CSS, and JS customization, so there is room to shape the banner well beyond the out-of-the-box options. Your comments on making that clearer are noted.

Kind regards,

"Effortless Compliance with Strong Automation Benefits"

4/5

What do you like best about Cookiebot by Usercentrics?

Cookiebot by Usercentrics provides a user-friendly UI/UX along with smooth integration processes (such as those in WordPress and Google Tag Manager).

The software's automatic scan function and intelligent consent system guarantee good performance as well as compliance.

The affordable cost structure and simple onboarding process yield good return on investment.

Cookiebot offers a great combination of usability and automation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cookiebot by Usercentrics?

The interface of Cookiebot might not seem as up-to-date or sophisticated as some other tools’ interfaces.

The pricing/return on investment of Cookiebot can become expensive when dealing with larger amounts of traffic or multiple domains.

Performance is slightly impacted because Cookiebot is a third-party solution.

Support is available, but at times it may take a while to respond to certain inquiries. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Cookiebot by Usercentrics solving and how is that benefiting you?

Previously, before using Cookiebot, our challenge was manual tracking of cookies and maintaining consistency regarding compliance.

We can now use an automatic scanner for cookies to achieve proper GDPR/CCPA compliance.

This has allowed us to save a lot of time in terms of setting up and maintenance.

This has also helped improve integrations and accuracy of the data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Hanna Sternkopf of Cookiebot by Usercentrics

Hello Daniel,

Thank you for your review! We're glad the automatic scanning, smooth integrations with WordPress and GTM, and simple onboarding are saving you time and delivering good ROI. It's great to hear Cookiebot has replaced manual cookie tracking with a reliable, automated compliance process.

We appreciate your feedback on the interface, pricing for larger setups, performance, and support response times - this is all valuable input that helps us improve.

Cookiebot is easy to use and get set up. I like the fact that there are different settings for different regions as well! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cookiebot by Usercentrics?

It has so many functions, that it can be overwhelming - sort of comparable to ga4. Also, signing in is a bit complicated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hi Mike,

Thank you for the review. It’s good to hear that setup was straightforward and that region-specific settings help you adapt consent handling to different audiences, and that Cookiebot supports your approach to cookie and tracking regulations without adding to your costs.
