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.

Longtime customer since 2015 and hardware provisioning has always completed within minutes to a few hours alongside fast tech support.

Nearly ten years on OVHcloud: the service works and hardware issues get handled, despite slow management site and opaque monitoring.

Dedicated server hardware and built-in DDoS protection have been solid for years, though the control dashboard and customer support are awful.

Their OVH dedicated server performed really well for over three years apart from one hardware outage that took about 24 hours to fix.

Running four dedicated servers there since 2017 with terabit-scale DDoS protection included at no extra charge, provided you know how to manage Linux security yourself.

SP3 dedicated server with 12 GB RAM, an E3 CPU, and four free IPs is a steal, and support resolved an OS install and network issue quickly.

KS1 dedicated server handles a 30-slot Minecraft server with 30 plugins, MySQL, and web hosting at a steady 20 TPS once the world sits on a ramdisk.

Runs 40 dedicated servers, nearly all on the XCP-ng hypervisor with Xen Orchestra backups; the one WHM/cPanel server is unremarkable because it has never given any trouble.

Runs LXC containers on OVH without problems, using a routed setup with public IPs on the guests and a single bridge interface.
