Verdict

Adder Technology Adder AdderView PRO AV4PRO

8 / 10 Expert Rating

A serious modular KVM built for control rooms that need to scale past 4 computers, overkill for a simple desk setup.

Vertiv (Avocent) Avocent SCKM140 Secure 4-Port Desktop KVM with Audio

6.2 / 10 Expert Rating

A discounted, functional EOL unit — fine for matching an existing SCKM140 fleet, but new buyers should choose the SCKM140PP4-400 successor instead.
