I have been with OVHcloud for eighteen months and just audited my so-called "Business Boost" bundle. Eleven services included. Eleven. I have used exactly zero of them in production.

  • Site builder (drag-and-drop, exports unmaintainable HTML)
  • SEO analyzer (queries capped at 50/month)
  • "Premium" CDN with one PoP in Frankfurt
  • Mailbox with 2GB storage
  • Malware scanner that emails me daily about its own update binary
  • Backup to OVHcloud Cloud (proprietary format, no export)
  • SSL "manager" that is just a cron calling certbot
  • Uptime robot clone (checks every hour, not minute)
  • Analytics dashboard (counts bots as visitors)
  • "Priority" support ticket flag (same queue, different color)
  • One-click WordPress installer (I run Debian with docker)

I kept the bundle for three months thinking I would find a use. I did not. The cancellation form required checking eleven separate confirmation boxes. Each named the service in legal caps.

Has anyone actually built a workflow around one of these throw-ins? Or is it all shelfware by design?

Hej, I am use only malý server from bundle. No articles needed for me, I am put into config what I need. Backup tool is on server, I am never touch. No use for SEO, no use for site builder. But malý monitoring tool, hej, I am set ping to my pxe boot menu. It is work.

No, whole bundle is bloat. I am pay for nothing. But I am too lazy for cancel. You are cancel, good job.

boot anything, anywhere, anytime
