We are already using those other providers. Vultr is pretty comparable with those but offer a still better global presence and a better API interface that allow us easily managed our fleet without needing manual action in the customer portal.
Also, Vultr customer portal is really ease of use and smooth that is pretty confortable in the day to day running

Linode is a more old-school offering. Linode pricing model and infrastructure rely on classic Virtual Machines. What we like about Vultr is that they offer the same at the front, but in the back, the machines are much more flexible and can be tailor-made to our needs, which of course also impacts the costs of running the infrastructure.

OVH is cheaper overall, but Vultr is more reliable. Especially with support. Even when I have issues that sometimes shouldn't be covered by Vultr they point me in the right direction so I can get things moving. Not that it happens often. I've probably contacted Vultr a total of 2 times in 6 years.

Vultr started out primarily as a VM-only provider, but has since expanded offerings and locations to be a serious alternative for a lot of businesses currently using a large, expensive cloud provider. Vultr may not be for everyone or every workload, but there are many businesses and individuals that are adding way too much complexity and cost to their projects by using large cloud platforms they do not really need.

Update to review:
Vultr's new Optimized Compute offerings are a game changer. They are designed to accommodate a more diverse or resource-intensive workload.

I just like the Vultr environment. DigitalOcean, for example, has many restrictions about the configuration of 25 ports (email server) and this is really bad for my business. Linode has had security issues in the past, someone has stolen data from one user on their platform. I guess Vultr is more indicated to advanced people with critical tasks to be done.
