OVHcloud is hard to beat on raw price per gigabyte. OnetSolutions plays a different game: human French-speaking support 7 days a week with replies under 2 hours, snapshots and backups included, no commitment, one console. Here is the line-by-line comparison so you can decide with the numbers in front of you.
If your number-one criterion is price per gigabyte of RAM or bandwidth, OVHcloud keeps the edge: at similar specs its VPS-1 costs less than our GP-4 and ships with a 500 Mbit/s link. That is a fact, and this page does not try to hide it.
If your criterion is total cost and the time you lose when something breaks, the balance shifts: at OnetSolutions, snapshots, off-site backups, anti-DDoS, the Windows Server 2025 licence and human support under 2 hours are all in the price, with no commitment. OVHcloud's standard support advertises a first reply within 8 business hours, by ticket or chat.
In practice: freelancers, small businesses, agencies and teams without an internal on-call rota — OnetSolutions. Heavy network volumes, worldwide multi-region deployments, budgets optimised to the cent and the skills to handle everything alone — OVHcloud remains a very good choice.

The reasons that come up in the migration requests we handle, without embellishment.
OVHcloud standard support advertises a first reply within 8 business hours, in English outside office hours. Here, a French-speaking technician replies 7 days a week in under 2 hours, included with every VPS.
Snapshots, off-site backups, anti-DDoS, Windows Server 2025 licence: everything is in the displayed price. At OVHcloud, snapshots and 7-day retention are paid options — small, but they add up.
OVHcloud's most attractive price assumes a 12-month commitment. At OnetSolutions you pay monthly and leave when you want; yearly billing is a choice, not a condition.
VPS, private network, firewall, snapshots, invoices and tickets are in the same place. No more hopping between several areas for a routine operation.
Our team guides you from the first rsync to the DNS switch. It is not a billed service: it is simply how we welcome a customer changing providers.
Datacenter in France, French company, named contacts. You are not one customer number among hundreds of thousands.
An honest comparison also says when to stay. In these situations, we advise you not to migrate.
At equivalent specs, OVHcloud is cheaper, especially with a 12-month commitment. If you use neither support nor add-ons, the gap is not offset.
OVHcloud VPS offer 500 Mbit/s to 3 Gbit/s. Our General Purpose range tops out at 300 Mbps and Performance at 500 Mbps: for massive transfers, OVHcloud is better sized.
OVHcloud has datacenters in Europe, North America and Asia-Pacific. OnetSolutions hosts only in France — an asset for sovereignty, not for worldwide latency.
Public Cloud, Object Storage, managed databases, multi-service failover IPs: if your VPS is one brick of a wider OVHcloud setup, moving it alone makes little sense.
A well-run migration is invisible: you switch once everything is validated, and your OVHcloud server stays in place until the last moment.
Pick the plan recommended in the table above and your operating system: the machine is delivered in 10 seconds with its dedicated IP.
Copy sites, databases and files over SSH or rsync from your OVHcloud VPS. Our team walks you through it step by step if you wish.
Test your applications on the OnetSolutions VPS IP before any switch: your OVHcloud server keeps serving visitors in the meantime.
Lower the TTL, point your domains to the new IP, verify, then cancel the OVHcloud VPS when your commitment ends.
Before switching DNS, take a one-click snapshot of your new VPS: you freeze a validated state and can roll back in seconds if a post-migration setting goes wrong.
Price, migration, downtime, commitment, support: concrete answers for those comparing OVHcloud and OnetSolutions.
No, not at equal specs: OVHcloud's VPS-1 (2 vCPU, 4 GB, 40 GB NVMe) is listed at €3.81/month excl. VAT with a 12-month commitment, versus €6.39/month excl. VAT yearly for our equivalent GP-4. Our price, however, includes snapshots, off-site backups, the Windows Server 2025 licence and human support under 2 hours, with no commitment. Compare total cost for your workload, not only the first line.
The most common reasons: standard support that is slow to react when a server is down (first reply advertised within 8 business hours), scattered administration interfaces, and the feeling of being just a customer number. A human-scale French provider answers all three: technicians reachable 7 days a week within 2 hours, one console, a contact who knows your file.
Order a VPS equal to or larger than your current machine: it is delivered in 10 seconds. Then transfer your files and databases over rsync or SSH, test your services on the new IP, then switch DNS. Our support assists you at every step, and a one-click snapshot gives you a rollback point before each operation.
No, if you proceed in order: your OVHcloud server keeps responding while you copy and validate everything on the new VPS. The only visible transition is the DNS change, almost instant if you lower the TTL in advance.
Nothing stops you from preparing the migration now: order from us monthly, migrate calmly, and cancel OVHcloud when your commitment ends. A few weeks of double hosting usually cost far less than a rushed switch.
Our General Purpose range runs on Intel Xeon with Enterprise SSD or NVMe; the Performance range on AMD EPYC 7443 with NVMe and 500 Mbps. 99.9% availability, datacenter in France. For a French or European audience latency is equivalent; OVHcloud keeps the edge on raw bandwidth.
Yes, 7 days a week, with a reply under 2 hours. Your requests are handled by French-speaking technicians who have access to your infrastructure — not a chatbot or a generic call centre. It is the first migration reason cited by our customers coming from large providers.
Yes: domain and server are independent. Leave your domain at OVHcloud and point its DNS records to your new VPS IP, or transfer it to OnetSolutions to group everything. Either way, e-mail and website follow without a URL change.
Yes: Windows Server 2025 comes with the licence included in the VPS price from GP-4 upwards. At OVHcloud, the licence is not part of the displayed VPS price. For comfortable Windows use, go for the 8 or 16 GB RAM plans.
Order monthly with no commitment, migrate at your pace with our team, and keep OVHcloud until everything is validated. The first ticket a human answers in under 2 hours is often what decides it.
