Public Cloud Compute Instances · $87.75/mo (7 GB RAM, 2 vCPU, 50 GB SSD)
OVHcloud's c2-7 at $87.75/mo is significantly overpriced for the specs offered. Multiple providers deliver comparable or superior compute, RAM, and storage at 5-15% of the cost, though most lock in introductory rates that renew much higher. The real value gap widens when you factor in OVHcloud's separate IPv4 billing and regional egress changes.
8GB RAM, 4 vCPU, 100GB SSD, unlimited traffic at 1/15th the price; 24-month prepay locks in the rate and avoids renewal shock.
Caveat: Quoted price requires 24-month upfront commitment; shorter terms cost more per month; fair usage policy on unlimited traffic.
4GB RAM, 2 vCPU, 40GB SSD, 20TB transfer included, no separate IPv4 charges, and transparent month-to-month billing with no lock-in.
Caveat: Prices exclude VAT; traffic overages billed per GB outside the 20TB pool; recent price increases on other product lines suggest future hikes possible.
4GB RAM, 2 vCPU, 120GB NVMe, unlimited traffic up to 1 Gbit/s, and 99.99% SLA matching OVHcloud's reliability.
Caveat: Intro pricing is a 1-year promotional rate; renewal pricing is 2-6x higher; additional IPv4 addresses cost $6/month each.
4GB RAM, 1 vCPU, 50GB NVMe SSD, 4TB transfer, AMD EPYC, weekly backups, and a straightforward feature set.
Caveat: Intro rate requires 12/24/48-month prepay; renewal jumps to $11.99/mo (85% increase); monthly billing available but significantly more expensive.
4GB RAM, 2 vCPU, 120GB NVMe, 99.99% SLA, and a fixed-tier product that avoids the complexity of building-block pricing.
Caveat: Intro pricing is a 1-year promotional rate; renewal pricing is 2-6x higher; outbound traffic beyond 2TB free pool is metered.
