I'm not familiar with those at all, I can only speak to the two I spoke of. But it's a bit strange for an ISP to develop its own hardware, and ddos prevention has nothing to do with system management or cloud hosting feature sets. Furthermore, those two are the least mature, slowest, tiniest, and most limited providers in the shootout on every metric except perhaps network performance in France.

> But it's a bit strange for an ISP to develop its own hardware For an ISP that, 5 years ago, was the largest hosting provider on the planet, and is still an ISP in several countries with their own backbones, custom hardware is not unusual. You don't complain when Google or AWS develop custom hardware, or when Level3 develops custom hardware. Why would OVH be different? > and ddos prevention has nothing to do with system management or cloud hosting feature sets. No, but it's something you complained about, although OVH managed to successfully handle the second-largest DDoS known to date without downtime. It's very obvious you're not familiar with them at all.
