(knock on wood) nothing in the last 6-7 years has caused an outage.
APC's are what I've grown to love... mostly because they're cheap and plentiful (eBay!) The only issue I've had with them is "flash corruption"; sometimes they have to be reprogrammed after a power outage. I'm using metered PDUs so it never effects the servers. But I also have a set of ServerTech dual-feed units. The full monty of DC features. (in fact, what a number of colo providers use.) I've not used them in years, 'tho -- lack of facilities to power them. (the electrician got a little happy cutting out old wiring in the current office and killed the two existing L6-30 drops. everything else is L21-20.)
