The best docking stations can instantly make you more productive by giving you much more flexible workflows. In the past, a dual monitor setup used to be the domain of only the most technical and advanced users. Not anymore. Today, just about anybody can increase their productivity by having access to more external screens and devices.
As technology advances and computing power continues to grow exponentially, laptops have become thinner and lighter. But one oddity about all this improvement is that as computers become more compact, they lose some of the traditional ports they have always had. This creates a constraint that needs fixing. What’s the point of having this powerful machinery that has obvious bottlenecks related to how much external power and peripheral devices you can use to take advantage of it?
