The APC Smart UPS 1500 LCD just works
Our previous Smart UPS had gotten old and was getting weak. Even after it had new batteries it was no longer able to do its job. I ordered the new one from CDW after talking with them about what I needed. It installed easily and works very well. We are set to overcome minor power outages now.

I prefer this device over the SMC1500 due to the runtime. It’s worth the extra investment for your small home or office environment.

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 on this SMT. Otherwise the BR1500 is my personal favoroite for NGS MiSeq type instruments.

just what the dr ordered
I bought this product in preparation for Hurricane Irma, and it has worked perfectly during my use. Even when there are no storms, my area is slightly prone to outages, and this UPS has never failed to provide uninterrupted PC use.
During the storm, I had the chance to truly stress-test this product, as I was experiencing multiple power outages a minute. During 40 minutes of PC use, with lights constantly flickering, the UPS logged over 40 events that required battery backup, yet my PC was completely unaffected. After the storm, I was without power for 2.5 days, and the battery kept enough power to charge multiple phones multiple times.

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 recommend it if you want to keep and protect your equipment at the same time while running a business!

Benefits any workstation
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, and an easy-to-read LCD screen. It supports my network, PC, multiple monitors, modem, and router with ease. If you max it out, it will give about 24 minutes of usage during an outage; I'm running at around 30% load and get about 40 minutes. What's more, APC SmartConnect can be implemented to monitor the status of your UPC remotely if you wish, but isn't necessary to enjoy the other benefits of this product while omitting real-time monitoring from a distance. The peace of mind in knowing that there will be time to save critical work is worth investing in.

Just what I needed....
My wife and I both work from home and we have had some recent power failures that have left us unable to work, I selected the APC Smart-UPS SMT1500C with the hope that should it happen again we are covered. The APC Smart-UPS is very easy and straight forward to setup. I also installed the APC UPS Network Management Card 3 to help with monitoring and management. Very happy with it, everything is plugged in and running smoothly and quietly.

Quality Product!
The APC Smart-UPS SMT1500C is an incredible UPS that provides excellent value for the price. I’ve been using this UPS along with its network management card, and it has completely changed the game in terms of power protection and remote monitoring.
Setting up the UPS was a breeze, and the network management card seamlessly connected to my network. This allowed me to easily keep an eye on the UPS from anywhere, receiving notifications and accessing performance data for peace of mind.
With its 1500VA capacity, the SMT1500C delivers reliable power backup for all my valuable electronics. It keeps them safe from power issues like surges or fluctuations.
The UPS has a sleek tower design that fits well in any environment. The LCD display gives me quick access to important information like battery life and power conditions.
Having 8 outlets is fantastic as it lets me connect multiple devices, including my computer, monitor, router, and more. It’s really convenient.
Overall, the APC Smart-UPS SMT1500C, combined with the network management card, offers excellent value, reliability, and ease of use. If you’re looking for a UPS that protects your devices and allows easy remote monitoring, this is the one to get. I highly recommend the SMT1500C as the best value UPS in its category.

Keeps my server and internet up during brown outs
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've mitigated this by always supplying the server, our router and the switch with 120 VAC even during times when our power drops to 20VAC (our brown out voltages).
I cannot recommend installing a UPS enough to anyone who needs to ensure their server uptime is maximized.

Great Backup
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 doing.

Large capacity unit for peace of mind.
I got this UPS for my home office setup. Now that working from home has, thankfully, become more normalized, I do need to ensure that said work is protected. The famously reliable Texas power grid loves to dip out when the weather gets too hot or too cold, and I've found myself staring at a suddenly blank screen too many times. Working as a developer with AV software, I have several power hungry PCs that I need to support, and so I was looking for a larger capacity UPS.
This unit has the capacity I was looking for, but is large and heavy. I wish it had handles, or grips on the case to make it easier to move around. The controls are all on the front, which is great if it's up on a shelf, but not so easy to use if the unit is sat on the floor. The black buttons on a black faceplate are also a little difficult to see, particularly if it's dark.
Setup is relatively easy. Click through a few options on the device itself, plug into a router, set up an account on the APC website, and you can register/monitor the device remotely. You get a trial period with the standard monitoring plan, which you can set up to email you with warnings and errors that the device encounters. It'll let you know if the UPS has lost power or if the connection to the UPS is lost. The free plan allows you to check the device remotely, but won't do notifications. This isn't a big deal for my situation. There is a slot on the back of the unit to fit an optional network management card if you need to tie the device in with a more extensive monitoring system in a full office environment.
Once running, the small screen on the device shows the battery charge level and the load as a percentage of the UPS capacity. I really like having the load visible, because with older UPS units, you never quite knew if you're plugging in too many devices. This one will warn if you are drawing more power than the batteries would be able to sustain during a power loss.
Overall, seems like a good quality, solidly built unit. APC is the brand I've always seen in use at workplaces I've been employed at, and they seem pretty reliable.

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 areas in out house and will most likely get a few more.

Reliable UPS
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.
