OVHcloud
With the dedicated servers, we have maintained a consistent over 99 percent uptime. Several apparel purchases are made on our website every month and therefore having versatile servers is very important. OVH servers are robust enough and offer secure HIPAA compliance. But as you scale higher, and aim to have secure servers you might need to engage security software like SOAR systems as OVH security is not enough.

UpCloud
If you're looking for a cost-effective solution then this is a good choice, be sure to keep on top of your balance! The 100% uptime is also a nice addition, although not unique in a cloud hosting service.

Cons
OVHcloud
  • Security options are pretty basic, we must use SOAR software alongside to secure the servers.

UpCloud
  • The billing reports are quite hard to read, could be simplified
  • A control panel function would be useful
  • The re-billing process could be better, not so cut throat if you miss a payment!

We trialed UpCloud to see if it would be better than DigitalOcean but for our needs, it was not. On DigitalOcean once a droplet is created, almost no thought needs to go into maintenance, outages, or other reliability-based issues.
