OVHcloud Dedicated
Pros
- + Widest dedicated price ladder in Europe: $11 Kimsufi entry up to High Grade
- + Anti-DDoS mitigation included, unmetered, at every price point
- + /64 IPv6 block on most servers, /56 on High Grade and Scale
- + Published SLA per range (99.9% to 99.99%) with service credits
- + Own hardware and data centers across EU, North America and Asia-Pacific
Cons
- - Setup fees commonly equal one month's rent on branded lines
- - Standard support is ticket-based and varies by region
- - 2021 Strasbourg fire showed real design weaknesses; off-site backups essential
- - Eco/Kimsufi ranges run older hardware generations with fixed SKUs
Psychz Networks
Pros
- + Sixteen cities on four continents — Johannesburg, Sao Paulo, Mumbai, and Moscow on one account, which almost no competitor offers
- + DDoS mitigation is a core competency: bundled filtering on every dedicated server, tiers to 500 Gbps, fourteen scrubbing points, and remote protection via reverse proxy without needing an ASN
- + Public catalogue of 158 priced plans — no quote-form gate; VMs from $4/month and hourly from $0.0011
- + S3-compatible object storage with zero egress charges and immutable object lock included
- + Service commitment with real teeth: 99.9% network uptime and 5% credit per half hour of outage up to a full month's fee
- + Own facilities and network since 2014 (hosting since 2001) — an operating company, not a reseller shell
Cons
- - All payments non-refundable (continuous backup excepted); claims expire after one calendar year; Texas law with California arbitration
- - Usage policy reserves a discretionary takedown right over otherwise legal content; adult-content permission is a 2015 forum answer, not policy
- - Support and provisioning reviews are genuinely mixed despite the 15-minute response promise
- - Bandwidth is 'unmetered' under an unpublished fair-use threshold
- - EU footprint thinner than US/Asia; documentation and control panel are functional rather than polished
