Yes OVH should give you the same sort of things, and they now have an american datacenter (you can chose which datacenter you want your servers to be in when ordering)

Thank you, the prices look comparable. Does anyone have experience with them? How are they?

OVH are great as long as you don't need to get in touch with them - If one of their servers break, you're better migrating to a new box than trying to fix it.

Same experience here. This is why we always have more servers up than we need to. One time it took us almost a week of mailing before they replaced a broken hard drive. But they have to save money somewhere.

I'm strongly advising against cheep providers like ovh or hetzner without proper redundancy.
