Is OVHcloud's VPS-1 the best deal?

VPS · $4.54/mo (4 GB RAM, 2 vCPU, 40 GB NVMe)

Better deals exist

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 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.

VPS Hosting NVMe 2

$2.09/mosave 54%

Cheapest intro price with 50GB NVMe (vs 40GB), unmetered bandwidth, and root SSH access included.

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.

Cloud VPS S

$4.33/mosave 5%

Slightly cheaper than OVHcloud with 2GB RAM, 2 vCPU, 80GB NVMe (double the storage), and 1 Gbit/s unlimited traffic.

Caveat: Intro pricing is a 3-month or 1-year promo; renewal is 2-6x higher; outbound data beyond 2TB pooled allowance is metered at $0.036/GB.

Cloud VPS 4

$5.94/mo

Massive spec upgrade: 8GB RAM, 4 vCPU, 100GB SSD for only $5.94/mo (24-month term), plus unlimited traffic and 200 Mbit/s port.

Caveat: Price is locked to 24-month prepay; shorter 1 or 12-month terms cost significantly more per month; fair usage policy may throttle sustained high-bandwidth usage.

Cloud Servers CX23

$6.49/mo

4GB RAM, 2 vCPU, 40GB SSD, and 20TB transfer pool for $6.49/mo; strong specs and transparent pricing with no surprise license surcharges.

Caveat: Price excludes VAT; traffic overage billed per GB beyond 20TB EU pool; recent large price increases on CPX/CCX lines (up to 2.75x) suggest future hikes possible.

VPS Hosting VPS S+

$5/mosave 10%

10% cheaper than OVHcloud with 2GB RAM, 2 vCPU, 90GB NVMe (more than double storage), and unlimited traffic.

Caveat: Intro pricing is a 3-month or 1-year promo on 1-year contract; renewal is 2-6x higher; outbound data beyond 2TB pooled allowance is metered.

Before you switch

OVHcloud charges IPv4 addresses separately per instance; confirm if you need additional IPs before comparing total cost.
APAC region outbound traffic loses free-egress status after mid-2026; if you use India/Singapore/Australia, factor in future egress charges.
Bluehost and IONOS both have steep renewal hikes (2-6x); calculate 24-36 month total cost, not just intro rate.
Contabo's $5.94/mo is only available on 24-month prepay; 1 or 12-month terms are significantly more expensive per month.
Hetzner's listed price excludes VAT and traffic overage is billed per GB beyond 20TB; verify your region's VAT and expected data transfer before committing.
