Public Cloud Compute Instances · $87.75/mo (15 GB RAM, 2 vCPU, 50 GB SSD)
OVHcloud's r2-15 at $87.75/mo is significantly overpriced for the specs offered. Multiple providers deliver 4 vCPU / 8GB RAM / 100GB+ SSD for $5.94-$12.39/mo with better or equivalent performance, lower renewal risk, and no per-IPv4 or Windows license surcharges. Even accounting for hidden costs and contract terms, you're paying 7-14x more for comparable or inferior hardware.
4 vCPU, 8GB RAM, 100GB SSD, unlimited traffic at 1/15th the OVHcloud price; 24-month prepay locks in rate and avoids steep renewal shock.
Caveat: Quoted price is 24-month prepaid rate; 1-month or 12-month terms cost significantly more per month; fair usage policy on unlimited traffic may throttle sustained high-bandwidth abuse; ticket-only support on base tier.
4 vCPU, 8GB DDR5 RAM, 200GB NVMe SSD, unmetered bandwidth, plus $60 Amazon gift card; 93% cheaper than OVHcloud with better storage and memory.
Caveat: Intro price requires 36-month prepay; renewal jumps to $9.99-$15.99/mo; free domain and privacy only first year; aggressive upsell prompts for add-ons during checkout.
8GB RAM, 100GB NVMe SSD, 8TB transfer, AMD EPYC, 1 Gbps port, weekly backups at 1/10th OVHcloud's cost; strong value for the specs.
Caveat: Intro price locked to 12/24/48-month prepay; renewal jumps to $14.99/mo (71% increase); only 2 vCPU vs OVHcloud's 2 vCPU (specs match); monthly billing available but at much higher per-month rate.
4 vCPU Intel, 8GB RAM, 160GB NVMe SSD, 5TB transfer, 1 Gbps port, DDoS protection; 89% cheaper with matching or better specs and included DDoS.
Caveat: Quoted price is 3-year contract rate; renewal rates 2-4x higher (around $11.99/mo); free domain only first year; lowest intro prices require 24-36 month upfront prepay.
4 vCPU, 8GB RAM, 80GB SSD, 20TB transfer, 1 Gbps port; 89% cheaper with no per-IPv4 charges and transparent pricing; EU-based with strong uptime track record.
Caveat: Prices exclude VAT; traffic overage billed per GB beyond 20TB EU pool (much lower in USA/Singapore); recent large price increases on CPX/CCX lines (2.4-2.75x in June 2026) signal potential future hikes.
