No Windows Server compatibility
The product in itself would be great. The compatible software won't work on windows server 2019.

APC - UPS
I’m very happy with this product. I was satisfied with the time it took to get the product. Delivery was really fast.
I will continue to order more products from Staples.

APC Back-UPS 850, Compact Tower, 850VA, 120V
Although it has the same general features as my old unit (which worked well for 18 years), I definitely liked the new electronic display. It allows me to check the status of the battery without having to access the software system.

Works Great
I've been using this unit for 2 years now and have had no issues. Works great and has protected my equipment from multiple storms and outages. Works as expected. APC has always been high quality and they continue to be.

Outstanding UPS!
The APC 850 VA UPS worked perfectly at the latest power outage. There was adequate time to shut down safely and absolutely no loss of power to the devices. Very satisfied. Fantastic product.

Worked as expected: I turned it on, connected the USB cable to Synology NAS, which instantly recognized it. After charging the battery, I unplugged it from the power outlet and all my devices (network gear + Synology NAS continued to work. Synology software correctly detected "safe mode" and shut itself down after 10 minutes. The network router and modem can go on for w...

Great UPS but disappointed on the transfer time
I bought this a week ago. Simple to setup and use. The display on the front is very helpful. However I found the transfer time to be too long, about a half second before the battery power would kick in after the main power was lost. This resulted in my system shutting down. The purpose of my adding this UPS was to prevent my system from shutting down. Disappointed...

Works Like A Champ!!!
I have been using APC products for years, especially the APC UPS for protecting my computer hardware. I have never had any power related problems with my electronics. The APC UPS hardware is the greatest.

Great Product, Great Company
I have been a long time customer of APC products, and this UPS does a wonderful job of living up to my expectations. I just recently moved to a new state and live closer into town than I did before, where I lost power several times for more than a few minutes per year. My new location isn't so far into the sticks, so having a UPS isn't quite as important as before. But ...

Quick, easy, great!
Received a shiny new BX850 UPS recently. I'm using it to protect a small home office server with critical personal and small business data on it. SInce I live in an isolated area of the high desert, power fluctuations, sags, and outages are common, especially when the wind starts blowing hard. This UPS has already saved my system a couple times. The downloadable softwar...

Excellent battery back up
This APC battery backup is an excellent way to back up computers and electronics in a home, home office or at work. It is a vertical form factor, so takes up less space and shows the amount of time in minutes the UPS will provide power. Excellent product and I highly recommend it.

A Great UPS for a PC and Peripherals
This unit replaced an APC Back-UPS RS, which is a fine enough unit but this one is even better! I especially love the LED display that tells me so much more info about the status of the system, including the connected load. I can now easily see which connected components are creating the load.
I also like that surge protection for co-ax has been added, so I can protect...

Great home/small business PC UPS
I am a long-time APC UPS user and was eager to look at this model because the UPS's I've had have served me well through occasional outages.
An obvious feature is to be big enough to give reasonable time to save your work. The BX850M can handle laptops to towers outside of high-end gaming boxes.
The unit also has all the features that one would expect of a UPS in 2018...

Excellent product - works as intended
I previously had owned the APC RS700 Back-UPS and the product has served me well over the last few years. The new APC Pro BX850M Back-UPS came with complete and much clearer and understandable insturctions for installation and operation than my previous product. Installation and setup was quick and easy and I was up and running again in less than 15 minutes. This unit i...
