Which should you buy, Adder Technology Adder AdderView PRO or Hearvo S7232H 4K60Hz HDMI KVM Switch?

The Adder Technology Adder AdderView PRO suits broadcast and security operations needing rack-mounted, RS232-controllable switching, though it is not the pick for single-desk users who only need to switch between two computers and buyers needing HDMI or DisplayPort instead of DVI/VGA. The same goes for control room and NOC operators managing 4-8 machines across multiple monitors. It is the wrong buy for budget shoppers, since modular head configurations cost more than a fixed 4-port switch. Take the Hearvo S7232H 4K60Hz HDMI KVM Switch for office workers and budget-conscious buyers wanting reliable 4K@60Hz switching without USB-C docking features. Avoid it for buyers needing USB-C laptop support or docking-station features, the AV Access KVM Switch Dock is the right choice for that. Our rating of the Adder Technology Adder AdderView PRO (8/10): A serious modular KVM built for control rooms that need to scale past 4 computers, overkill for a simple desk setup. Our rating of the Hearvo S7232H 4K60Hz HDMI KVM Switch (8/10): best value, reliable 4K@60Hz HDMI switching with adaptive EDID and 4 USB 3.0 ports for under $50.
