VPS · $12.32/mo (12 GB RAM, 6 vCPU, 100 GB NVMe)
OVHcloud VPS-3 is competitively priced but several alternatives offer better specs or lower cost with fewer hidden gotchas. Contabo's entry-level plan undercuts significantly on price, while Bluehost and InMotion offer more storage and comparable specs at lower monthly rates, though all carry steep renewal penalties.
Cheapest option by far at $5.94/mo with unlimited traffic and 100GB SSD, though specs are slightly lower (8GB RAM, 4 vCPU vs OVH's 12GB/6 vCPU).
Caveat: Price is locked to 24-month prepay; shorter terms cost significantly more per month, and fair-usage throttling applies to sustained high bandwidth.
Offers 200GB NVMe (vs OVH's 100GB), 8GB RAM, 4 vCPU at $8.36/mo with unmetered bandwidth and includes a $60 Amazon gift card.
Caveat: Renewal price jumps to $9.99-$15.99/mo after intro term; lowest price requires 36-month prepay commitment.
Delivers 160GB NVMe, 8GB RAM, 4 vCPU, 5TB transfer, and DDoS protection at $9.99/mo on a 3-year contract.
Caveat: Renewal rates are 2-4x higher (around $11.99/mo); lowest intro prices require 24-36 month upfront payment.
Matches InMotion's price at $9.99/mo with 8GB RAM, 4 vCPU, 80GB SSD, and 20TB transfer allowance; strong SLA and no Windows license surcharges.
Caveat: Storage is smaller (80GB vs OVH's 100GB); traffic overages charged per GB beyond 20TB pool; prices exclude VAT and have seen large increases in 2026.
Closest spec match with 8GB RAM, 4 vCPU, 240GB NVMe, and unlimited traffic at $11.50/mo; 99.99% SLA.
Caveat: Intro pricing is a 3-month or 1-year promo; renewal pricing is 2-6x higher; additional IPv4 addresses cost $6/month each.
