Perfect Docking Station
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ordering these for work to go with our new Dell computers as our IT department does not provide docking stations. Works great with all the different types of monitors throughout the offices and for our remote workers.
I would recommend this to a friendDidn’t work out of the box
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Did not work out of the box. Only one HMDI would work at a time. Perhaps installing drivers from the website would have helped, but not an option on my corporate laptop. Had to return as it wasn’t very helpful

Posted .With a work computer, you will have to contact your system administrator, IT or help desk, and request that they install the driver software on the computer's local Admin account.

Good when it works; not so much when it don't
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The j5create - USB-C Triple Display Docking Station is decent. However, one of the HDMI ports has had issues since I got it in Dec 2021, and now it doesn't work at all.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This product was suggested by a Best Buy tech because I needed to work from dual monitors from my laptop. It has been working excellent since now working remotely from home. It arrived on time and was easy to hook up. Working smarter and not harder. Very pleased.

It is working great
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had to do a couple restarts after downloading drivers to get them all working correctly but been working fine since with 3 external monitors. I purchased the charger as well and it charges my zbook and spectre laptops.

Posted .Supports Mirror and Extended modes on both Mac & Windows. The easiest way to add a second or third display. Charge your notebook or desktop through the JCD543 power-in port.
Takes a bit of work but it’s a good product
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The device runs very well. However, it does take a bit of work to download the software and have it operating correctly if you plan on running dual or triple screens.
I would recommend this to a friendMacBook Pro M1 Chip NO 3 monitor extend
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I specifically bought this to EXTEND up to THREE monitors, as the packaging states. As a docking station it's decent as there are many ports BUT I have a new Macbook pro with M1 Chip and MacOS Big Sur 11.2.2. Apparently the M1 Chip doesn't allow more than 1 screen to be extended so now I'm back to searching for alternate options. There are plenty of hacks to get all three monitors to extend but you need to buy an hdmi adaptor with displaylink built into it. If you have a Mac, pre M1 this will probably do the monitor extending just fine. Be aware that it WILL NOT EXTEND THREE MONITORS on M1 based Macs.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from J5create Team
Posted .Hello Shug, we have Beta drivers for M1 to support multiple displays. However, though it is a Beta, we are still continuing to update those drivers. If interested and would like to try, please visit our website and select "Support" > "Downloads/Drivers". Cordially, j5.
Plug in extension
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Needed this as my laptop didn't have the plug ins I needed. Working great
I would recommend this to a friendPerfect
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the new Mac and needed more ports for uploading film and to add another screen. This thing has EVERYTHING that I need. I can hook up 3 cameras using the USB, insert the MicroSD from the drone, and still have a port to charge my phone and my Mac!

Posted .Hi Charles,
It is great to hear that the JCD543 is giving you all of the connectivity that you need. We hear from a lot of customers that their new computers do not have the ports that they need and that our docking stations give them the ability to do their work.
Have a great day,

Great docking station
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very versatile. Gives me all the connections I need for my MacBook.
I would recommend this to a friendExcellent addition for MacBooks
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this to accompany my MacBook Pro 14” (M1). Allows me to utilize wired connection to my router as well as use three external monitors along with the MacBook display.
I would recommend this to a friendAWESOME PRODUCT
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I do wanted to keep it! Started with a MacBook Pro but ended up with a Mac mini so I returned it but I’ll tell you what the black part is sort of tacky and you can still put it on the monitor stand as angle! Everything worked perfectly.

Works great!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works great so far with my HP Spectre x360. I have two older external monitors (1680x1050) that are using a DVI to HDMI connection. Eventually, I'll purchase newer 4K monitors and we'll see if it can keep up with that. For now, it's working well.

Did like
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this for work and price to performance just wasn't there. Couldn't get the drivers to install properly for some reason returned
I would recommend this to a friendBrand response from J5create Team
Posted .The USB-C Triple Display Docking Station requires that a computer supports DisplayPort Alt Mode and USB Power Delivery 2.0 or 3.0 features. The driver is used only for the VGA, Mic and stand alone HDMI port. Proper functionality entails downloading and installing a driver on a Windows or Mac platform. Depending on the OS you have, different instructions apply.
Flexible with great performance
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is allowing me to switch between laptops with up to three monitors attached and a video camera very easily. For newer laptops that are sourcing power also on a USB-C port it also eliminates one more power supply.... OUTSTANDING. You won't regret this item.

Posted .Flexibility to choose from different ports and great performance is part of using the JCD543. Due to it's nature, it is a top selling device on the market and we are happy to know it is meeting your expectations.

Perfect
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve purchased two of these and had one for over a year. I use that one as a docking station for additional monitor at home and use the new one I just bought for additional storage / monitor / charging when on the road.
