Public Cloud Compute Instances · $114.1/mo (32 GB RAM, 4 vCPU, 100 GB NVMe)
OVHcloud's r3-32 at $114.1/mo is significantly overpriced for the specs. Multiple providers offer 8 vCPU / 16-24GB RAM configurations at $12.99-$32.13/mo with better storage and no per-IPv4 surcharges. Even accounting for renewal-price traps and intro-rate mechanics, the OVHcloud plan lacks competitive value.
4 vCPU / 16GB RAM / 200GB NVMe at $12.99/mo intro (vs OVHcloud's 4 vCPU / 32GB / 100GB at $114.1/mo); renewal jumps to $28.99/mo but still 75% cheaper than OVHcloud.
Caveat: Intro price requires 12/24/48-month prepay; renewal is 2.2x higher; only 16GB RAM vs OVHcloud's 32GB, but storage is double.
8 vCPU / 24GB RAM / 300GB SSD at $15.12/mo (24-month term) delivers more CPU and nearly as much RAM for 87% less; unlimited traffic vs OVHcloud's 1 Gbps public.
Caveat: Price is for 24-month prepay; 1 or 12-month terms cost more per month; fair-usage policy on unlimited traffic; ticket-only support on base tier.
8 vCPU / 16GB RAM / 450GB NVMe at $17.67/mo intro; unmetered bandwidth and includes $75 Amazon gift card; renewal still likely under $50/mo.
Caveat: Renewal price increases steeply (2-4x typical); requires 36-month term for lowest intro rate; free domain only year 1.
8 vCPU / 16GB RAM / 160GB SSD at $18.49/mo; stable pricing with no major renewal traps; 20TB transfer included; 99.9% SLA.
Caveat: Only 160GB storage vs OVHcloud's 100GB (but still adequate); traffic overage billed per GB beyond 20TB in EU; VAT not included in quoted price.
8 vCPU / 16GB RAM / 480GB NVMe at $22/mo; unlimited traffic up to 1 Gbps; 99.99% SLA matches OVHcloud's reliability tier.
Caveat: Intro pricing is 1-year promo on 1-year contract; renewal 2-6x higher; extra IPv4 addresses cost $6/mo each; outbound data beyond 2TB pooled is metered.
