What does downtime cost your business?

Don’t wait to renew your Smart-UPS — the cost of unplanned downtime adds up quickly.

Cost of Downtime (per hour) = lost revenue + lost productivity + recovery costs (repair services & replacement parts) + intangible costs (loss of data or data recovery)

Did you know that 44% of outages are related to power problems?1
