If you want to offer the preference selection in the cookie banner notice on your WordPress site, you should use the Real Cookie Banner plugin*. This is probably the best alternative to Borlabs Cookie, Cookiebot, Complianz, and co.
The best Borlabs Cookie alternative with over 100 templates & content blocker with individualization solution
The most important thing is a GDPR and ePrivacy compliant consent. We regularly see websites with cookie banners that load Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Facebook Pixel, and co. even before active consent. These are known to be the „worst offenders“ and should generally be prevented.
The main advantage lies in the automatic detection of new OptIn notices when changes are made globally or on individual subpages. Real Cookie Banner comes with more than 100 service templates and more than 60 content blocker templates:
- Automatic check of all subpages for used services of every indexed page in the sitemap
- Detection of external services (with and without template) based on HTML markup
- Detection of known WordPress plugins, JavaScripts etc. in all locations through website scan
Simply put: The plugin notifies you automatically if something in the cookie banner and notices needs to be changed or updated.
Further down in the article, we list the features of the alternative.
Note: There is even a free alternative, but we do NOT recommend it as it lacks the most important advantages, and saving the 39 euros per year would be penny-wise and pound-foolish!
A great video by Lea Giltjes about the Borlabs alternative for the cookie banner:
We particularly like the Borlabs Cookie Alternative due to its simplicity through automatic detection. If you still want to use Borlabs Cookie*, you can, of course, continue to do so, but Real Cookie Banner simply outweighs it in terms of price-performance.
