What customers say
Users generally praise the Avocent SwitchView 100 for its robust build quality and reliable video switching when handling standard desktop setups. The core function of cleanly transitioning between four computers using DVI is effective. However, a major theme is setup complexity and peripheral compatibility. Many users report significant frustration because modern peripherals, like advanced mice or specialized USB hubs, often fail to connect or lose connectivity intermittently. While the hardware feels durable and high quality, these persistent compatibility hurdles, coupled with the high price, cause many consumers to question its overall value against simpler alternatives. It is excellent for basic needs but struggles with cutting edge equipment.
