OVH Alternative
Smaller catalog, clearer specs
vShield does not try to replicate OVH's catalog. A few VPS and dedicated offers, reserved vCPU in KVM, included anti-DDoS and human support in French.
Human FR support
Chat and tickets in French, 7 days a week. No bot sending you to generic docs.
Short catalog
A few VPS and dedicated tiers with readable specs, not dozens of SKUs.
Anti-DDoS by default
Included from activation, no hunting for the right module like on big catalogs.
