Public Cloud Compute Instances · $101.32/mo (30 GB RAM, 2 vCPU, 50 GB SSD)
OVHcloud's r2-30 at $101.32/mo is overpriced for the specs. Several providers offer 4 vCPU + 16GB RAM configurations at $12.99-$34.99/mo intro rates, though renewal prices jump significantly. Even accounting for renewal traps, you can find better long-term value elsewhere.
4 vCPU, 16GB RAM, 200GB NVMe at $12.99/mo intro (vs OVHcloud's 2 vCPU, 30GB RAM at $101.32/mo) offers far better compute-to-price ratio.
Caveat: Intro price requires 12/24/48-month prepay; renewal jumps to $28.99/mo (122% increase); weekly backups only on base plan.
4 vCPU, 16GB RAM, 250GB NVMe, unmetered bandwidth, and 100% SLA at $34.99/mo is a strong all-in-one value play.
Caveat: Renewal price jumps steeply (exact % unknown but documented as steep); no hourly/pay-as-you-go option; monthly billing only.
4 vCPU, 16GB RAM, 240GB NVMe at $25.2/mo with 99.99% SLA beats OVHcloud on specs and price.
Caveat: Renewal pricing 2-6x higher after contract term; additional IPv4 addresses cost $6/mo each; outbound data transfer beyond 2TB pooled is metered.
4 cores, 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD at $35/mo intro is cheaper and includes dedicated hardware and 1 dedicated IP.
Caveat: Renewal jumps to $49.99/mo (43% increase); requires 24-36 month prepay for lowest intro price; free domain only year one.
3 guaranteed cores, 24GB RAM, 180GB NVMe, unlimited traffic at $46.43/mo effective rate (24-month term) is transparent and stable.
Caveat: Quoted price is for 24-month prepay; 12-month term costs more per month; shorter terms significantly higher; fair usage policy on unlimited traffic.
