Tripp Lite SmartPro

I was working as an operations manager for a medium-sized managed service provider. We almost exclusively used Tripp Lite SmartPro UPSs on all of our clients' servers and network equipment. We struggled for a while with cheaper options burning out on us or failing quite frequently but since moving to Tripp Lite SmartPro we have had a very consistent performance.

• Reliability.
• Longevity.
• Keeping equipment safe.

• It has been positive for us as we seem to get a much longer life out of these, more so than other solutions.
• Keep our business critical machines up and protected.

We use Tripp Lite SmartPro UPS for over 50 communications closets that have

an average of 2-3 switches each. We needed a device that could keep

power going for around 15 minutes as we have regular power outages for

that usually last less than 1 minute. We also needed to send an email alert whenever it lost power.

• Provides clean power to devices
• Email alerting

• A positive impact as devices are kept online during outages preventing accidental damage from surges on power resumption.
• Automated emails track power outages saving time for us not having to manually document each outage.

I work at a University with multiple campuses and each campus has multiple communication rooms. We currently use Tripp Lite SmartPro in all our communication rooms as these rooms are not on any other sort of enterprise building UPS. We use the SmartPro as they have been found to be reliable from our testing and have the ability to provide alerting of power outages.

• Providing clean power on power outage.
• Display with estimated runtime.
• Email alerting.

• The positive impact as we were able to identify when a power outage was the reason for remote sites going offline without having to physically check devices.
• Having a UPS meant we were able to keep the servers and switches operational as well as end-users avoiding downtime.
