I haven't had any experience with TrippLite's interface, but I've gotten very frustrated with java interfaces lately and avoid them if possible. APC's web interface is both simple and easy. I use their switched rack PDUs, but I believe the interface is the same for metered. It's simple and easy, but has enough features to be generally useful to me. Justin H. Ian Mock wrote:
+1 for APC, HTML based GUI, also supports major management protocols. Never had a problem with it.

If I recall correctly, they have an HTML-based GUI. I rarely use it. I mainly use SSH and SNMP which they support as well.

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?
TIA.
