Is OVHcloud's b2-120 the best deal?

Public Cloud Compute Instances · $889.87/mo (120 GB RAM, 32 vCPU, 400 GB SSD)

Better deals exist

OVHcloud's b2-120 at $889.87/mo is significantly overpriced for the specs. Multiple providers offer comparable or superior configurations at 50-75% lower cost, with better storage (NVMe vs SSD) and clearer pricing. The main trade-off is contract lock-in on cheaper tiers, but the savings are substantial enough to justify.

AX102 Dedicated Root Server

$99/mosave 89%

128GB RAM, 16 vCPU, 3.84TB NVMe for $99/mo - nearly 9x cheaper than OVHcloud with double the RAM and vastly more storage.

Caveat: Price is a placeholder and unconfirmed; setup fee raised to 79 EUR in 2026; VAT excluded; traffic overage charges apply beyond 20TB EU pool.

Dedicated Servers AMD Genoa 24 Cores

$214.92/mosave 76%

128GB RAM, 24 vCPU, 2TB SSD for $214.92/mo - 4x cheaper than OVHcloud with double the cores and RAM, unlimited traffic.

Caveat: Requires 24-month prepaid contract; shorter terms cost significantly more; fair usage policy on unlimited traffic; ticket-only support on base tier.

Dell R7525 Dedicated Server

$276.33/mosave 69%

128GB RAM, 24 vCPU, 1.92TB SSD for $276.33/mo - 3.2x cheaper than OVHcloud with superior CPU core count and matching RAM.

Caveat: Prices exclude VAT; delivery time 1-5 days depending on stock; EUR 255.86/mo base price may vary by region.

Enhanced NVMe 64 Dedicated Server

$217.19/mosave 76%

64GB RAM, 16 vCPU, 2TB NVMe SSD for $217.19/mo - 4x cheaper than OVHcloud with NVMe storage and unmetered bandwidth.

Caveat: Steep renewal price increases after intro term; 36-month contract required for advertised price; domain and privacy add-ons expire after year one.

Cloud Compute Regular 16vCPU/64GB

$320/mosave 64%

64GB RAM, 16 vCPU, 1.28TB NVMe SSD, 10TB transfer for $320/mo - 2.8x cheaper than OVHcloud with NVMe and 100% network uptime SLA.

Caveat: Windows license not included; bandwidth overage rates vary by data center; no mention of IPv4 surcharges but verify before committing.

Before you switch

OVHcloud's $889.87/mo price appears to be a premium tier with no clear justification vs. dedicated servers at 1/3 the cost - verify the exact use case (managed services, specific region, compliance) before assuming it is overpriced.
Contabo and Bluehost require 24-36 month prepaid contracts to hit advertised rates; renewal pricing is 2-3x higher - calculate true 3-year cost before committing.
Hetzner AX102 price is flagged as unconfirmed placeholder; verify current pricing and 79 EUR setup fee on their live site.
All cheaper alternatives charge VAT separately (EU) or have regional traffic overage pools - confirm your region and expected egress before switching.
OVHcloud's hidden costs (IPv4 surcharge, Windows license, APAC egress loss post-2026) may apply to your workload - itemize these before comparing net cost.
