Solid UPS, Hard to Kill
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We pretty much use these for all our clients. Easy to monitor with SmartConnect, easy-to-replace batteries. Just make sure to use brand-name APC batteries as the knock-offs don't work as well.

Benefits any workstation
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm highly satisfied with my uninterruptible power supply with surge protection from APC. This floorstanding unit has tremendous battery capacity, especially considering its small footprint. It features 8 grounded outlets, a slot for a network management card, one USB-A and a SmartConnect Port, menu navigation buttons,...

Amazing features and quality!
The APC Smart-UPS SMT1500 worked perfectly for my small business to keep it running during power outages. It provided us with a backup battery power in the event of a power outage, monitoring and safeguarding your equipment from harmful power conditions. The best part is that the automatic green mode ensures you are operating at the highest level of efficiency. Highly r...

Best APC during a power outage
I live in a place where our power goes out what seems like once a month and I work from home so this is not a great setup. However This APC keeps me working when our power is out. I have my router plugged into it and I just keep on working. Super easy to setup and I get alerts sent to my email on when the power goes out if I am not home. I have bought two more for other...

Great Backup
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Being that I am a programmer and work from home, having a power backup for my computer is very important. While I do not have power outages often, I will occasionally get flickers, and when they do occur I can't work. So by using this, it gives me that extra time to continue working without disrupting whatever I was do...

Keeps my server and internet up during brown outs
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We live in a part of town that is older, and during out hot summer months we have occasional brown outs (Power drops enough to cause electrical items to shutoff/restart) and having this happen to your server at home is not conducive to a long life of the raid, cpu and other items. However, by installing the APC UPS, we...

Reliable UPS
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is very reliable UPS. The unit is heavy as it's 1500VA but the shape makes it very stable. There is a fan that turns on only if the unit is operation on batteries. Normally the unit is silent. The runtime on 85W is above 2h which is great.

Response from Staples :
Thank you for taking the time to review our software and UPS. I am sorry to hear that you ran into issues with our equipment. I do see that you have a SMT1500C and I would make sure if you are using PowerChute Network Shutdown that the UPS has the separate network card installed in addition to onboard Smart Connect software. Smart Connect will not work with PowerChute Network Shutdown. You can add a network card to the unit as well and the part number for that is AP9640 or AP9641 if you want the option to connect a temp probe to the card. I would still recommend reaching out to APCbySchneider support team at your convenience for further assistance in resolving the issue. We would be happy to assist you in resolving any issue with the unit. For fastest results please click the "Get Help" on the page.

Huge 3000VA capacity tower style UPS
This is a big beefy solid 3000VA tower style UPS. Looks GREAT and provides a lot of connections and runtime. Even includes the newer SmartConnect remote management software which works well. Highly recommended if you have the need and space for this beast!

Pricy Replacement Batteries and Upfront Cost
I manage the UPS for a midsize biotech in South SF with over 2.5millionKVA backup potential. Before buying this consider if your using a diesel to provide increased power outage support this might be more than you need. True it's scalable if you have high current start up requirements/maintaining switches for pumps PGE will love you for this properly configuring loads ...
