The easy truth is, all the other hosting providers you see in this very site do not own any of their hardware (mostly), they depend on providers like ...
OVH to do this. Why am I saying this? Because I don't get why OVH is rated this low. It's not a bad hosting company at all, no, rather they are the gods of all other hosting companies if you think about it (not all, but a DECENT bunch)
So please don't get deceived by these reviews from unprofessional people.

Btw a half a year ago I tried to learn their prices to set up a few dozens new bare metal hosts. I wrote 3 times to their Sales using different ways but no one answered me. I tried to reach their Sales via their support because we had an account but received an answer "we can't help you, bye". Wow.
I've got some proofs about both cases.
Total fail. I paid 2000$ for a MANAGED vps that was not managed for 4 days. The site was down, they couldnt set up 3 different php versions correctly ...
on 2 more addon domains for 4 days. Total dissaster. I fell really sorry that I paid for 2 years.
