The outlets are little tight when plugging/unplugging. That's kind of a good thing though, so that yanking a cord by accident doesn't unplug anything.

Great cost/battery life ratio

I'm really reaching for cons here, but it's heavy; That's to be expected though, and this isn't meant to be a portable device

Simple setup and manage well through APC software.

Good brand to put all your electronic devices on it; Easy installation and communicate well with computer

None

...because their software allows you to set the voltage levels of electricity before the battery kicks in. It is the same thing as Automatic Voltage Regulation when you set the levels. Thats why APC costs 6% more than competeting products by other manufacturers but it is worth it.

We have been using APC for all our systems here. We switched to this model as our previouse was discontinued but used the same battery system.

Same battery as previous

None

I purchased this for my high end gaming computer. I did a test and even with a 750w Power Supply and dual video cards, the BE550G took 4 minutes to hit 50% battery life, which is more than sufficient for me to shut down.

Adequate Power; Easy To Set Up; Excelent value

I won't buy anything but an ACP surge product. About 18 months ago had a lightning strike take out our power supply, satellite receiver and new HD TV set. Took about 3 months to get the check, but no questions asked, the power supply was replaced almost immediately and sent a check for the TV.

Price; but well worth it

I ordered this for my new computer, and we had a power flicker just a few hours after I set it up! It worked perfectly. There is software included that will let you check the status of the battery and tell the unit what to do if it loses power (such as turn off the computer). Very useful!

Part arrived well packed and in a timely manner. Unit has functioned as promised and we are well pleased with it.

It seems to be working. It is important to place this UPS far away from Wifi modems as it could cause interference with wifi. It did arrive in time. However, it is not possible for me to say how long the product and battery lasts and how it performs during a power outage.

On occasion, our power goes out for a few seconds and so while only the lights flicker, our computer shuts abruptly down. We purchased this APC battery backup surge protector and have been so happy.
