I feel it's my clue to ask a question I've been wondering lately: how good is OVH's dedicate server service? (Regarding network, uptime, system outages etc).
I used one of their dedicate servers for six months and never had any problem with it, however I plan to buy (rent) dozens of big-data servers for my next project, and while my experience so far have been good, I'd like to hear from someone else.
Despite of that, I had several downtime issues with VPSs hosted at OVH. I guess the difference is you can't oversell dedicated servers.
- Bedon292 12y agoI have been using OVH for a few years now, and had no issues to report. This is only a few low-mid level dedicated boxes and a half dozen VPS's though, so others may have differing results.
- thaumaturgy 12y agoOVH has been a frequent flyer in my abuse and spam logs, and I blackhole them regularly, fwiw.
- yc1010 12y agoI had a few expensive top end storage servers (36 drives), they worked fine for years, only 1-2 drive failures, no power failures or major network outages I can remember. Last year i switched to collocation instead, but still have 1 server with them, things have improved alot lately, now the servers come with ipmi and new ovh control panel is nice. Problem with OVH are noobs buying their servers trying to save every buck only to realise that the support will not fix anything but hardware issues (loose cable, broken drive etc). Obviously alot of people do not understand that unmanaged means unmanaged
