OVHcloud pricing and plans

European hyperscaler pricing with unmetered bandwidth

OVHcloud runs its own datacentres and its own network, which is why the VPS list price is denominated in USD and includes unmetered traffic rather than a monthly transfer allowance. The 2027 range replaces the older Value/Essential/Comfort/Elite naming with plain VPS-1 through VPS-4 tiers, all on NVMe storage. It is a serious alternative to Hetzner if you want unmetered egress and a wider region map, and it runs its own data centres in North America as well as Europe.

We earn nothing from OVHcloud. It is here because leaving out the largest European cloud provider would misrepresent the market.

Plans and derived unit cost

The final two columns are computed from the monthly price, which is how you spot the tier where a provider stops being good value.

    Pricing page

All figures are the providers' own published list prices in USD, on-demand monthly. The index was last refreshed 2026-10-14, and every row shows the date its own price was read. Nothing here is live or negotiated pricing. Where a provider bills a public IPv4 address on top, it is added to the monthly price, the ranking and every cost per vCPU or per GB, and the row shows the parts: the server, any disk priced apart, and the IPv4 charge. Some prices exclude VAT or need a commitment; the plan notes say which. Check the provider's pricing page before you commit.

Where OVHcloud sells these plans

Vint Hill, Hillsboro, Beauharnois, Gravelines, Roubaix, Strasbourg, Frankfurt, London, Warsaw, Milan, Singapore, Mumbai, Sydney. Same price in every location. Traffic is unlimited except in Mumbai, Singapore and Sydney (1 or 3 TB a month, then 10 Mbps), and a VPS ordered outside the US cannot be upgraded after delivery.

Where OVHcloud wins

  • Unlimited traffic at 500 Mbps–3 Gbps depending on tier
  • Prices set in USD on the North American site, no FX drift for the invoice
  • NVMe storage across the whole VPS range
  • Datacentres OVHcloud actually owns, including US and EU footprints

Where it does not

  • Two vCPUs on the cheapest tier is generous, but shared and inconsistent under load
  • Support quality has an uneven reputation; documentation is thinner than DigitalOcean’s
  • Add-ons like backups are billed separately (from about a dollar per month)
  • Historic outage record (Strasbourg fire, 2021) is worth knowing about before you rely on a single region

Who should actually pick this

Bandwidth-heavy workloads that would blow through a metered-transfer plan at another provider.

Support: Ticket support included; paid Business and Enterprise support tiers via the OVHcloud Control Panel.
