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.

IOGEAR GCS1744

7.2 / 10 Expert Rating

A capable, budget VGA KVMP switch nearly interchangeable with ATEN's CS1744, chosen mainly on brand preference.
