Good plans but I wish they'd offer an option between a metered 1Gbps and an unmetered 250Mbps.
A better alternative: https://store.hivelocity.net/product/355/customize/
Prices to expensive.in my eyes. I think they will fail in US.
Same.
Great price, this is incredibly cheap for the location, we currently pay more than 10x this in Portland,,
FYI portland we are talking over $100 for an intel atom with 1 disk being the norm
Yup. Next time, just read the link Jesse mentioned..
That's not the same configuration and is more expensive.
• No RAID, Single HDD
• Less powerful CPU
• Less bandwidth
• No DDOS protection.
Don't get me wrong, I'm sure you get a lot more hand-holding with Hivelocity than OVH. But comparing only price/performance ratio, OVH seems like a much better choice.
Routing is not optimized just like others. 50-70ms to Seattle networks as it gets routed to CHI/NY/LA first.
Quite expensive compared to the stuff at BHS and even with regular low-end US dedi hosts. It will be more interesting if they offer VPS in Portland similar to other OVH locations.
Looking forward to different offers later on, might buy one of these for a month to mess around with though.
Guess OVH is too lazy to peer with any useful peer or transit provider at SIX even if they have a 10G port there....
What's the test IP address?
Going to need a lot more than 10Gbit on SIX if you're OVH.
Francisco
They seem to be actually in Hillsboro, Oregon (right next to Portland).
hows ping to Google cloud oregon us-west1?
Maybe put a caching reverse proxy here for the cheap bandwidth.
This is what I keep waiting on...some VPS or Public Cloud in their US locations.
Big boi Octave kept saying it was Portland. Edited the title there.
Thanks for the feedback
great, this is how I save money
Oh no, OVH is pulling the 'New York Metro' scam too?!
Francisco

Quebec ... BHS ...
? Quebec is the province, not the city.
As far as I've seen with OVH/SYS/KS they've only ever advertised Beauharnois, not any other city (i.e. Montreal).
Not even remotely interested in OVH USA
Not as long as there are way better and cheaper options in the same locations, no.
You are all talking about cheaper options in the same area. My question is, who is the cheaper option with comparable specs?
https://usdedicated.com/ & https://www.reliablesite.net/
USDedicated - $130 for a server with 10TB bandwidth and 4Gbps DDOS protection. +$600 for unmetered bandwidth (granted, it's 1Gbps vs 500Mbps)
ReliableSite - Latest 1270 they have is v3.
OVH only offers 250 Mbit/s on their models in the US.
You're only looking at hardware generation. The performance difference between and a 1270v3 and v6 is minimal. You're factoring out that OVH support is too put it nicely, shit. Both of these providers answer my ticket in less than 12 hours and actually solve the issue as well. Solving issues at OVH takes, most of the time, a month if not at all.
OVH US is a totally separate company with different CEO and different people though. I can't compare as I've not used them yet.
