Very easily attached both of my monitors and I was able to download install software from the website.
Hello, It is great to hear that you were able to easily set up your monitors with the JCD381. This mini dock does require a driver to be installed. All of our driver software can be downloaded from the j5create website. Thanks, The j5create Team

A pit pricey but works great with laptops that don't have HDMI or USB ports. Look-wise also not bad at all.
Hi, Most laptop do not come with many ports these days. A docking station is almost a requirement to get the full functionality out of a laptop. We appreciate you taking the time for writing a review. Have a nice day, j5create

Works well for extra accessories that need to be attached
Sizing is definitely something we here at j5create take into consideration when designing devices and we are happy to hear the customers are noticing as it's the little things that make the biggest difference. Thanks, j5create

Works good gives you the extra ports computers don't have now

Had issues, likely because of software

This did not work on my MacBook Pro (newest model). I'm not sure if it was an issue with the software, or what. but I needed to download something, and it wasn't very intuitive at all. I spent a lot of time trying to get it to work ,but my MAC wasn't allowing it to be used, for some reason I still cannot explain. With MACs, if you are using a non-Apple product (or not recommended by Apple), it seems best to just concede and get whatever Apply recommends. I don't think it's the device's fault. But, it is an issue if I can't use it because the software isn't compatible or intuitive in use. It already takes so much time to get these converting products, that I can't deal with another setback or time-consuming situation. The company does get back to you and is responsive, but it's just more time being dedicated to something that may or may not work. Regarding the quality, this is a sturdy piece and has several ports. It just wouldn't function with my newest MacBook Pro without further, further assistance.
Hello, The JCD381 requires drivers to be installed for it to work. However our drivers are not compatible with the newest MacOS Big Sur. We are currently working on developing drivers that will be compatible with Big Sur so our devices will function properly. Your patience is appreciated. Thank you, j5create

Easy to set up and use. Able to add my non-wireless printer to laptop without any hassle.
Connecting more monitors, Ethernet up to 1 gigabyte speeds and USB ports for peripherals is what makes the JCD381 a top seller; it's solid build guarantees years of usage. Cordially, j5create

Versatile and fast

When looking for a docking station for my Lenovo Yoga 720 there weren't many good options based on my needs. I wanted high resolution video, high speed USB and high speed networking. This docking station has all three and has proven to be very reliable and consistent (especially the NIC at 1Gb). Concurrently copying large files through USB and the NIC really illustrates the speed all while not interfering with video output or the external mouse connected. The concurrent performance is why I gave this item 5 stars.
Versatile and fast are the best characteristics of the JCD381 and we're grateful for your review. If in the future, you have any issues with your device, please reach out to support and a rep will gladly assist. Cordially, j5create

Was hoping for more

Gotta say I was hoping for so much more. I purchased it to go with my new Lenovo Yoga 6 laptop. Initially everything seemed to work ok, but then after the monitors went to sleep then only one would come back on. After some troubleshooting it was determined that the unit was at fault. It also got pretty hot for a docking station and the build quality felt cheap.
HardwireCS, thank you for the feedback on the JCD381. It is normal for the hub to become slightly warm due to electricity running through it while in use; in the case where it is getting too hot to where it is harming you, we suggest contacting support for an exchange. In the case where the monitors are going to sleep, there are settings to be adjusted and regret to request a second opportunity to troubleshoot and see if we can resolve the problem. Respectfully, j5create
