I like them both, but my favourite will be ovh. I can’t tell you why, as i have approx the same specs(9900k/3700x on hetz and 2288G on ovh). Yes, I pay for ovh 2 times more, but also getting 10/2 port.
Maybe it’s only my feelings, but sometimes ovh looks like faster.
Hetzner. And there's so many reasons for that.
I just think both of them should start deploying in NL
With unmetered bandwidth😂
OVH Ticket support has been amazing for me this week, simple monitoring issues solved within hours over ticket, they even logged in.
Hetzner. Torrent friendly.
uhhhhhhhhh
When the poll ends I am going to get a dedicated server from the one who have most votes.
It all depends on where you are. For me Hetzner is a lot better in terms of bandwidth than OVH, but I’m in The Netherlands. OVH has an extensive own network which makes it possible to directly peer with a large number of ISP’s whereas Hetzner’s network is limited to Europe. They rely on transit for overseas.
I think If hetz would have more dc location, they would win in all positions.
Nobody's perfect
LOL
French vs German
OVH, unlike Hetzner they have expanded out of Europe
I just received a response to a billing ticket today.... 49 days after I raised it
Gotta love OVH Support
Both for locations
Hetzner > Support = Fast and show HUMANITY!
OVH > Support = Slow or Always no response DI*KS!
Hetzner won for most cases except they are only in DE and FI.
Hetzner wins.
thx
Ovh vps line was always virtually unusable (odd general slowness, poor connectivity). I've never tried since they opened up UK DC (also tried another new DC idr which). Was a trainwreck. They claimed issues fixed after I left.. I have a hard time believing it's half decent.
OVH VPS is bad indeed it's better to rent from resellers that run KVM on OVH Dedis like Autovm.com and Extravm.com
OVH Public cloud is not so great either, especially the 250 mbps bandwidth limits and high prices.
Hi everyone, I'm obviously biased, so I won't vote in the poll. But thanks for the feedback. --Katie
I wanna also say thank you for your awesome services!
for the 1.000.000th time I am writing again:
I want BYOIP on hetzner
I want to be able to use my own ip blocks using Hetzner servers.
Whether it's doing BGP like vultr or You announce my ips I dont care.
If I can use my own blocks of ip on Hetzner I will today buy at least 5000 Euro Worth of servers from you.
Thank you So much!
Write them a message. BGP is usually just available for colocation. But I believe they work something out for 'big' customers.
OVH used to be far superior to Hetzner but now they are probably around equal.
OVH used to be cheap/cheaper and have better support, but now it is worse on both aspects. The hardware is now more expensive and support is absolutely awful in terms of time and expertise. The only thing OVH has over Hetzner now is locations.
The worst part about Hetzner was that they had 0 ddos protection and would leave you null routed for days. I don't know how good Hetzner's ddos protection is now, but at least they have it now. They were probably forced to spend money on it after OVH did it first.
To the best of my knowledge, this is true: https://wiki.hetzner.de/index.php/Spezielle_Angebote/en
@emre I'll try to pass this on to the right colleague. I believe the reason that we haven't implemented it for our other products is because there hasn't been much demand for it. --Katie
I don't like hosting any gameservers with Hetzner because each DDoS attack I receive, hetzner sends me an abuse message which requires my input. Imagine if I get 30 attacks per day. If I don't respond to one, my server gets suspended. @Hetzner_OL please change this policy or let us set default abuse response in case of DDoS Attack.
You would get tons of more customers if not for this.
What Hetzner location would be closer to Cloudflare?
Hetzner has great hardware, but the network is average, also, ddos protection sometimes blocks false-positively (if you use it in conjunction with cloudflare that would not be a problem).
OVH is great in every aspect, except, sometimes you get blacklisted IPs. Support is trash. That would be ok, however, they have increased prices recently, so I'm planning to move away.
I'm considering Clouvider, their new datacenters.
