Right out of the box; I hooked-up the battery terminal as directed, plugged it in, turned it on, and got the “Replace Battery” indications.

This is the perfect UPS for a small office/home office. The backup time is sufficient to safely shut down plus there is software to do this for you included. The small footprint is wonderful for offices where space is a concern. Installation is simple and straightforward. It went from box to use in less than 5 minutes.

We have power outages frequently and my UPS is a life-saver for my computer.

You absolutely can’t beat this product. My only request is that I wish this product line had an alarm defeat switch like the Back-UPS Pro. Next time around I will definitely spend the extra money to get one with the alarm defeat switch. Otherwise awesome product.

I am surprised at the increasing number of brown outs and power flickers we have been having so bought this to protect my PC from frequent re-booting and also any potential data loss. It seems to work well and kicks in and keeps the PC going when the lights and other electrical household items flicker off. Previously the PC would restart and complain it had not been shut down properly. Connected to a PC via USB it will automatically and safely put my PC into hibernate mode if the power is not restored before the battery back up runs down. The PC software gives an estimated run time on battery based on the power being drawn, but this is not at all accurate. The APC software shows a bizarre 450 minutes of back up power, although in practice it actually provides only 1 or 2 minutes of backup before initiating the hibernation sequence. I bought a higher rated unit hoping to get up to half an hour on battery power (Description claims up to 43 minutes) . In practice I only get a couple of minutes power – just enough to keep the PC on during power flickers or to go safely in to hibernate mode when power is off for an extended period. I’ve come to the conclusion that that is all that is really needed , so am pleased with the APC BE550G, just not so pleased with the misleading software estimates and real word battery run time. The only items attached to the powered sockets are a monitor and mid range desktop PC.

We got a bunch of these for our office computers and they work great! Easy to install and have already saved us from a few power failures. Worth every cent.

I am using APC products for the last (8) yrs and I am very with their products., particularly with Back-UPS 550.
Gerardo Kovacek (verified owner) –
Have used APC products for many years. This is my second time upgrading/trading in 6 units without issue. Work in an area that has often power “dips” and the units never fail to keep me up and running, or keeping me up until I can properly shut down for longer outtages. Recommend them to anyone!

i had it all typed, great story, something timed out, lost it all, not going to do it again. Happy new year.
Durward Krajcik (verified owner) –
I bought this product for a very expensive piece of medical equipment that had shut down and wouldn’t boot back up. Once I plugged it in to this product and the power was regulated, the equipment booted back up within a few minutes. I highly recommend using this product for sensitive equipment!
Lewis Weimann (verified owner) –
These are some of the best UPS’s for your money. Super easy to install and use. We use them for our customers and internally for our essential workstations like our 24/7 service desk. We had a power surge just last month that knocked out power to half the building. The computers with this UPS were not affected by the surge and stayed powered without interruption as we needed them to. I highly recommend the Back-UPS 550. They’re more than affordable and can protect highly valued assets.
General Kohler (verified owner) –
Functionally perfect. Gets me through the power loses that seem to have become more frequent. Wish I could get rid of the annoying alarm that sounds once power is back on & I turn my computer back on before the unit is fully recharged.

My APC BE550G is doing everything as expected. It replaced my returned three year old unit. Thank you, for a great product.
Eloise Gaylord (verified owner) –
The entire church office uses these to protect our computers, so when it was time to replace mine I didn’t question the fact. After speaking with a customer service representative, I was convinced that not only do they have a good product, but the customer service is outstanding. They told me the most economical way to purchase a new unt, and made return of the old unit easy. I would definitely recommend this product to business associates and friends.
Zena Bernier (verified owner) –
Almost everything important on my desk plugs into this. My last one lasted @5 years. It’s big and heavy but serves the purpose well.

I have used this product for years and it has worked when needed.Protected my computer form surges and shut it down when needed.

So far I like the ups I just today bought. easy setup (just plug it in), software installation was easy too. My critique is that the cord from the ups to the wall outlet is right beside the warning indicator light. well if you have the side with the cord facing the wall you can’t see the light. Turn it to the side with the light facing you (I am facing the ups with the cord coming out to my left) you can’t see the light because of the cord. If you put it on the floor next to the wall under your desk, you will never see the light, though I can see the cord un-obstructed. anyways, if you don’t care about the light at all, I basically agree with the most recent reviewers which I read.
