What customers say
This KVM switch earns cautious praise primarily for its robust build quality and professional feel, aligning with expectations for durable hardware. Users value the integrated USB hub and separate audio switching, which effectively simplifies peripheral sharing across multiple systems. However, performance is inconsistent. A major drawback involves compatibility issues, specifically intermittent recognition problems with certain keyboards and mice, causing frustrating dropouts. Video performance can also be tricky; some users report screen flickering or resolution issues, particularly with modern graphics cards. While feature rich, the high price demands flawless operation, making these technical glitches disappointing. It is a solid choice only if your specific hardware setup proves compatible.
