I've seen a full-site generator provide real value in parts of the world where 
power commonly goes out - usually in countries where that infrastructure is 
underdeveloped (eg India, Africa, some parts of south east Asia).

That said, most places don't experience (or expect) these kinds of outages.

And depending on your community, you're very likely to find a large % of people 
use laptops...which have built in UPS as they have their own batteries :)

For example our community is 95%+ laptops, even folks with dedicated desks dock 
their laptops to bigger screens, etc.

If you want to put a UPS somewhere I recommend it on your network setup so that 
even if the power goes out your internet has a chance of staying up. But 
honestly in most places (even developed cities) the internet is more likely to 
go out than the power.

Power strips with surge protection are much less expensive (no battery) but 
help deliver power to members, and provide *light* protection against power 
surges.

Fwiw in 12 years we've never had equipment damaged by a surge and zero requests 
for 100% redundant backup power.
