For business I would agree but just for keeping systems operating
24/7 purely for pleasure purposes and even phone services that are not
used in connection with any business interests I consider a UPS an OTT
complete waste of money .

Ah so you are one for wasting money why have VOIP when you have a
fixed line service there really is no need to have both services when
there are services available for calls that are no more expensive than
VIOP on fixed line. Especially when you take into account that you
need to provide and pay for the electricity to run either an ATA or a
computer and a head set .
