bought this to replace a 5 year old geeksquad UPS. I had it in the box for a while. I had some RAID controller errors on my Dell 740 server and thought it was hardware until I plugged the two PSUs into this unit. All errors were gone and I have no issues with my dell server. Glad I bought this UPS. Definitely recommend.

Installs very easily and works great out of the box. I am using this to protect audio/visual gear.
I've owned several APC products and have always been happy with them. Am using two other APC products to protect computers.

Purchased to replace a 10 yr old APC Back-UPS for my home office. Easy to set up and easy to use. I really like the display on front. Always recommend APC. I have a second APC that is approaching end of life and will replace that one with this same model here.

These things keep you going when the power goes down or out. I have used as a backup for my tv with directtv and during power outages was able to watch hours of tv without interruption. They also work great for keeping the WiFi and your computer going durn brownouts and outages. Highly recommend.

I bought this APC Backup Pro 1000VA just to keep the gateway and router powered up in case of brown outs, the wattage rating is 600w, my desktop is also plugged in but just for emergency shut down and not to run it out of power. So, the 2nd day I had it we had a power outage and I immediately shutdown my computer and look at the remaining time, with only the gateway and router running, it indicated 186 min, so I was happy, knowing with that time, at least I can go on my laptop and can still go online for at least 3 hours, well the brownout lasted 2 ½ hours, it really does help if your internet is up and running, because there is nothing to do when there is a power outage, so this is a really good buy. I am thinking of getting a second one for the streaming gadgets like Amazon show and Google home.
Highly recommended,

I love it. Works amazing. From the minute I plugged it into the wall it has been doing an amazing job. As soon as I plugged in the usb wire it was simple to download and install the software. I highly recommend this UPS.

Works as advertised. Mute function works. The display shows all the information you'd ever need. Battery lasts long enough to power my internet router, network attached hard drive, and fiber optic hardware for about 100 minutes.

I basically purchased this item to keep my home desktop computer along with the three monitors attached and a cable modem and wireless access point power supplies. This battery back up can keep everything powered up for a minimum of 35 minutes before I have to even think about shutting it down. it also works perfectly if you have to have temporary side power as we did during the hurricane season in Florida. I have actually plugged this battery back up into a Honda generator and it can provide pure sine wave AC power with no problem. The one thing you have to worry about with a APC power supplies as you will need to check on the batteries every year to make sure they are not exhausted

Excellent backup and surge protection for your computer. Allows enough time to shut down in the event of a power failure. It will run a modem and router for a very long time as well.

Does exactly what it is supposed to do. I have worked in the Data Center/Colocation field for 8 years now and have come to trust APC very much. We have been having thunderstorms in our area and power will sometimes go out. The other day, I was on my computer when the power kept going off and on. I didn't lose power to my PC once. I was able to save and quit my task and power down the PC properly, all because of this outstanding piece of hardware. 10/10 would recommend.

I've relied on these for decades to protect servers and routers. They're very reliable and the batteries seem to last at least 5 years.
