VPS · $4.54/mo (4 GB RAM, 2 vCPU, 40 GB NVMe)
OVHcloud VPS-1 is reasonably priced at $4.54/mo, but several competitors offer better specs or lower renewal costs. Bluehost and IONOS Cloud VPS S both undercut it on intro pricing with comparable or better storage, though watch for steep renewal hikes. Contabo offers significantly more resources (8GB RAM, 4 vCPU, 100GB SSD) for only $5.94/mo on a 24-month term.
Cheapest intro price by far at $2.09/mo with 50GB NVMe (vs OVH's 40GB), unmetered bandwidth, and root SSH access.
Caveat: Renewal jumps to $9.99-$15.99/mo after intro term; requires 36-month prepay for lowest price; domain and privacy free only year one.
Nearly identical price ($4.33 vs $4.54) but double the storage (80GB NVMe vs 40GB) and same 2vCPU/2GB RAM; unlimited traffic up to 1 Gbit/s.
Caveat: Intro pricing is promotional; renewal can be 2-6x higher; outbound data beyond 2TB free allowance costs $0.036/GB; IPv4 addresses billed separately at $6/month.
Massive spec upgrade for only $1.40 more: 8GB RAM, 4 vCPU, 100GB SSD vs OVH's 4GB/2vCPU/40GB; unlimited traffic and 99.90% SLA.
Caveat: Price is effective rate on 24-month prepaid contract; shorter 1 or 12-month terms cost significantly more per month; fair usage policy can throttle sustained high bandwidth.
4GB RAM, 2 vCPU, 40GB SSD for $6.49/mo with 20TB transfer included (vs OVH's 500 Mbps bandwidth cap); strong 99.9% SLA and no renewal trap.
Caveat: Prices exclude VAT; traffic overage billed per GB beyond 20TB EU pool; recent price increases on CPX/CCX lines (up to 2.75x in June 2026).
Slightly more storage (90GB NVMe vs 40GB) and same 2vCPU/2GB RAM for only $0.46 more; unlimited traffic with no bandwidth throttle.
Caveat: Intro pricing only; renewal 2-6x higher; outbound data beyond 2TB free pool costs $0.036/GB; IPv4 addresses $6/month each.
