A score out of 100. Negative and mixed reviews take points off, and so does having only a few reviews, so a handful of glowing reviews can’t beat a product many people like.

A RISE-S dedicated server had a faulty RAM module corrupting memory, and standard support would not replace it without a pricey 12-month support upgrade that wouldn't cover the weekend anyway.
A 2022 server was throttled from 100 Mbps to 10 Mbps with no explanation, so they cancelled it and will not return.
Paid in full for an OVH dedicated server in Singapore, but nothing was delivered for 40 days with no updates.
Had almost 10 OVH servers and frequent issues; support was so slow they had to ask a friend at OVH to nudge it.
Ordered an OVH Rise 3 eco server on 5 July and after about 15 days had no delivery ETA on the ticket.
OVH repeatedly took their dedicated server offline; support took over three hours to say it was a DMCA complaint about a client site.
Cancellation buttons for an OVH server did not work, requiring support tickets twice, so they moved to Hetzner.
