OVHcloud

French cloud provider with low-cost web hosting and its own data centres

Overview

OVHcloud is a French cloud and hosting provider founded in 1999 by Octave Klaba. Its investor relations page reports revenue of EUR 1,145 million for fiscal 2026, 1.7 million customers and 46 data centres.[8] W3Techs credits OVH with 2.4% of all websites in November 2026.[1]

Besides bare-metal servers, public cloud and VPS, OVHcloud sells shared web hosting in four tiers. On its English-language site in November 2026, prices were shown in US dollars: Starter at US$1.89 per month for the first 12 months (US$22.68), renewing at US$3.09; Personal at US$3.59 (renewing at US$7.09); Pro at a promotional US$2.39 (renewing at US$11.79); and Performance at US$8.29 (renewing at US$23.59).[9] Starter covers one website with 1 GB of storage, Personal 15 sites and 100 GB, Pro 100 sites and 250 GB, and Performance 150 sites and 500 GB, each with a free domain for the first year.[9]

OVHcloud builds and operates its own servers and data centres, which underpins its low prices and its appeal to European customers wanting data held by a European company. Its control panel and support are aimed at technically confident users, and the entry-level Starter plan’s 1 GB of storage is too small for most WordPress sites.
