OVHcloud

Europe's infrastructure workhorse. Domain pricing is fair and European TLDs are strong, but the domain UX is clearly a side quest next to the cloud business.

Where it wins

Strong European ccTLD pricing
Serious infrastructure behind it

Where it costs you

Clunky domain management UX
Support optimized for cloud, not domains

Spaceship

Namecheap's younger sibling runs the most aggressive first-year promos in the market while keeping renewals reasonable. Modern stack, clean checkout, prices move often.

Where it wins

Deepest first-year promos
Modern dashboard and API
Renewals stay mid-pack, not punitive

Where it costs you

Prices change frequently
Young platform — features still landing
