Hello All,

We currently use TrippLite and over all have been very happy with their
metered PDU's. When we first started out we had some minor issues and their
support went above and beyond. Lately the their Java web interface has been
becoming a real pain. More and more browsers lock it by default and it
takes a lot of work to get it working correctly. Does anyone have any
experience with APC? How are is management of their devices and over all
how do they operate?

I haven’t used anything in the last couple of years, but historically they didn’t require any plugins. They’ve also 
been wide open, so make sure you run around and disable all the usual suspects (telnet, non-https, unencrypted snmp). 
Other than that, I’ve had zero issues with management.
