The support is excellent, knowledgeable and instantaneous. Easy to use with an awesome interface, the functionality is fantastic.

In the beginning, I found the pay-as-you-go system a bit confusing. You're also limited to the cloud providers they have on the platform.

The best host server providing i use since last few years. It it very helpful up-front server setup, integrated robust security and caching tools which make it very user friendly application.

The other annoying thing is the way they handle additional MySQL databases for a site (e.g. if you have multiple apps installed that require a MySQL database).

The support team is just great! they're proactive, hands-on, solving almost everything in both application&server level. Server&Application management is super easy, tons of documentation.

Not being able to talk with a live person regarding questions, problems, etc.

It's a nice pricing model as it doesn't oblige the customer to any long-term commitment. Cloudways is super fast too and outperforms in terms of security and resources.

I always avoided getting a VPS because I didn't want to deal with the trouble of managing it.

OVH is a very good hosting company with little price from several years. They have regular update on their offer that helping administrator to build good network solution.

The support is slow (we're talking days where you'd need hours at worst), tickets get lost.

Overall, I would recommend OVH Cloud as a solid choice for businesses looking for reliable and affordable hosting services hosted and owned by a European company.

They are always under attack, 3 years ago i lost all my data.

It is a good solution, when you want to test something or you don't want to work locally.

Buggy and with bad UX, you need to be patient if you plan to do something there.

The dashboard and services activation is easy and smooth to operate. Deployment times range from good to acceptable.

Unfortunally, OVH have growth to fast and lost the "nerd" aspect of them : if you are not a big customers, you will have so bad support (waity for days for easy answer...).
