Customers are saying

Customers are delighted by the Back-UPS 700VA UPS's long battery life and its reliable performance. Many appreciate its surge protection capabilities and ease of use, along with the unit's compact size and reasonable price. While some users found the outlet spacing to be insufficient, the positive feedback on other features outweighs this minor drawback. The included software is also a plus for many users.

    Battery died on old unit

    Had to buy a new unit after the battery died. Replacement batteries only available direct from APC and their website only displayed blank pages when tried to get a new battery. Probably wise to get a new unit when the battery goes, and BB takes back the old ¨nits for recycling.

    This unit backs up a PC in a business environment. It handles the job of keeping the PC running during power surges and outages. Eliminates losing work that has not been backed up in a while.

    Solid UPS, can't get energy saving to work

    This is a solid UPS with enough outlets and battery to keep a computer humming along through short power interruptions. I got a good price on it through a deal of the day. However, I can't seem to get the power-saving feature to work correctly for my computer. No matter the state of the computer, the controlled outlets stay on. I've checked that the feature is enabled and tried configuring it with no luck. Still a solid UPS without though.

    Glad the product is in stock as the battery can fail without warning. My old unit could have just had the battery replaced, but those apparently are only available from APC and when one needs the unit there is no time to wait for a battery to be shipped

    APC makes good battery backup systems. The APC BN700MC UPS is a compact unit with good backup capacity. I haven't had the unit in service through a power outage, but expect it to protect my router and PC in the event of a power outage in the future.

    Overall very happy. Don't know why the Back-UPS HS application didn't work for me. It installs fine but couldn't find my UPS. Not important for my application as I configured it manually from the instructions.

    This was a replacement for an older model. The Power Chute software hasn't been updated for years, so I didn't need to install anything new. It automatically recognized the new unit and has already intervened during 2 short blackouts.

    To keep my pc from going down when there is a power outage, this greatly helps keep me running and I loose no productivity. Light weight and has just the right number of outlets to keep my stuff powered and protected from power blips.
