Qovery review

Node pricing starts at $2,999, the entry figure a reader compares across managed Kubernetes providers. The same number carries through entry and renewal, since no introductory and renewal split is given. Treat it as the floor for the smallest supported cluster rather than a promotional rate.

The free control plane answer is no. Both Cloudsmith and Red Hat OpenShift list a free control plane, so readers who want that layer covered at no cost should compare those first. For Qovery the control plane sits alongside node charges, and that is the largest difference in the cost model.

Support runs on email, help centre and community. That covers email, a help centre and a community, with no live chat or phone line among them. Teams that need someone on a call should weigh that before buying, since help is asynchronous on every channel listed.

Plan limits list from 3 nodes, so the smallest cluster sets the baseline. Growth beyond that scales the node bill, and each step repeats the node price of $2,999. Readers planning capacity should build the node count into the model first, then check what the control plane adds.

Qovery was founded in 2020 and is run by BIRDSIGHT SAS, registered in France. Contracts, invoices and any data terms sit with that entity, so teams that check vendor paperwork and jurisdiction before a purchase know who they are dealing with.

Qovery places 49 of 49 brands compared on node price from, against a ranking median of €12.46. Salad's node price from $0.015 is the low end of that field, while a free control plane at Cloudsmith or Red Hat OpenShift shifts the total rather than the node line.

A small team can run Qovery if it can fund both layers. Node pricing starts at $2,999, which is high against the field, so a modest cluster is the realistic starting point. Teams chasing a free control plane should weigh Cloudsmith or Red Hat OpenShift instead.
