Data Center Power Solutions

In our organization we have many Schneider Electric Smart-UPs devices to ensure power to our data center facilities. The devices have been completely reliable throughout the years. The reporting and notification features have been extremely useful in dealing with random power issues (both due to outside and inside problems). You can also combine these devices with add-on software to combine with Netbotz systems. This gives you an overall picture of your environmental variables (power, temp, dew point, humidity, etc).

Notifications are fantastic. In the event of a power outage the email notifications are quick and easy to set up.
The web based GUI is pretty intuitive and easy to use.
The ability to combine these devices with other Schneider (formerly APC) devices is great. We use a number of older Netbotz systems. This makes it very easy to pull reports to give an overall picture. For example: The power went out at 7:00PM. This caused the UPS to kick on. During that time the air conditioning turned off and the server room temperature went up 10 degrees. You can then take this data to those responsible for HVAC and determine best course of action. This is hypothetical of course but you can see the benefit.
Replacing the batteries is extremely easy.

The LCD screen on the models we use is very small and often you need to scroll through many pages to see the full message.
Battery run time is fairly accurate but you really need to keep an eye on it in the event of an emergency. I understand this is typical but it's worth noting.
Not sure if newer models have this but SMS notifications would be great.

They have saved our environment countless times. We have a history of power outages in our area. Some of these have been long-term. There is no doubt that without these devices we would have experienced a serious data loss issue at this point.
I cannot attest to the long-term impact of power conditioning but I can only guess that overtime the ROI has been positive in that regard as well.
Notifications have definitely saved our IT investment by alerting us when our backup generator did not kick on.

Coordinator of Network and Technical Services

We have been using schneider as a UPS solution for our data centers. We have 3 different UPS sets connected to battery banks powering our DCs. Protection against electrical irregularities and maximum up time are the goals for the setup and this has been achieved to perfection.

Schneider Electric Smart-UP does good understandable logging and alerts.
The maintenance is user-friendly and has little to no need for call logging most of the time.
The service and support from Schneider Electric Smart-UP is very professional.

I haven't had any bad experiences from Schneider Electric Smart-UP post deployment.
The deployment time can be reduced, There is sometimes lack of proper planning and scoping.

Schneider Electric Smart-UP has been a good addition to the projects I have worked with, This is our go-to UPS solution
