I’ve had years of experience with OVH. I would never choose them for a new project. Their product is acceptable , but the customer support people are jerks. Consistently, for years. I can provide very specific examples if you want.

EDIT: also have years of experience with Linode, Vultr, DigitalOcean, and even Upcloud (Spanish company as I recall).

I believe UpCloud is Finnish:

Last time I tried OVH, their interface was so confusing I just gave up before even considering it seriously.

The other ones are quite straightforward.

I left linode almost a decade ago specifically because Chris at linode was an utter dick in in their irc channel, but their other support staff is usually pretty cool.

I use Vultr for a hobby project, I have two servers: one with an IP address for $5, one without for $3.50. I use the first server as a proxy to the second, saving $1.50 a month.

I gave up on OVH after my VPS burned to ashes.
