OVHcloud Joomla Hosting review
Flexible Joomla hosting with a free entry tier and multi-site paid plans.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
OVHcloud Joomla Hosting provides shared web hosting for individuals, businesses, developers and agencies running Joomla websites. The service is managed through the OVHcloud Control Panel and supports SSD storage, MySQL databases, SSL certificates, anti-DDoS protection, automatic backups and email accounts. Joomla one-click installation is available on the Personal, Startup, Pro, Performance, Agency and Agency Plus plans, while the free hosting tier includes one website, 100 MB SSD storage, one email address, automatic backups and one FTP access.
The plan structure ranges from free hosting to Agency Plus. Personal and Startup each cost £5.19 per month and include 100 GB SSD storage, 15 sites, five 1 GB databases, automatic backups and standard support. Pro costs £8.59 per month and adds 250 GB storage, 100 sites, ten 2 GB databases and SSH access. Performance costs £17.19 per month, with 500 GB storage, 150 sites, 20 2 GB databases and a CDN. Agency costs £33.59 per month with 500 GB storage, unlimited websites, 30 2 GB databases, a CDN and SSH access. Agency Plus costs £49.89 per month and raises storage to 700 GB and databases to 40 2 GB databases. Paid prices use monthly billing and exclude VAT.
This is a broad hosting option rather than a Joomla-only service. Alongside Joomla, the platform supports WordPress, Drupal, PrestaShop and Git, with FTP and SSH access varying by plan. The free tier suits a small, simple site, while the paid tiers are more appropriate for multi-site projects that need larger storage, more databases or developer access. Agencies can choose the Agency plans for unlimited websites, CDN access and SSH on the listed tiers. It is less suitable for users seeking a narrowly focused Joomla hosting product or advanced capabilities beyond the features assigned to each plan.
