Why Switch

Why people look for an OVH alternative

The reasons come down to a handful of specifics in OVH's own advertised pricing and specs.

🗓️
Advertised prices need a 12-month term

OVH's advertised VPS rates are 12-month commitment prices. Luxvps is billed monthly with no minimum term, no setup fee, and a 48-hour money-back guarantee.

🚀
Entry-tier bandwidth is capped

OVH's VPS-1 and VPS-2 cap public bandwidth at 200 and 400 Mbit/s respectively — you only reach 1 Gbit/s from VPS-3 upward. Every Luxvps plan ships with a full 1 Gbit uplink.

📦
Only 1x daily backup by default

OVH includes one daily backup. Luxvps takes 4 automatic snapshots per day with one-click restore — included free on every plan.

🧠
Less RAM per euro

OVH's VPS-2 gives you 8 GB RAM for €8.58/mo. Luxvps Luxury Deal #2 gives you 16 GB RAM for €6.99/mo — less money, double the memory.
