Pros & Cons
Pros
Great labels for different ports and power charging (or bandwidth) on front and back. Every single port functions exactly to spec. I also like that the ethernet port supports pxe booting.
Reasonable footprint, it's not too large, it’s thick but not too big. I own a plethora of docking stations.
This is a monster docking station. It is pricey but most similar docking stations on the market are at a similar price. Make sure you really need all three monitors because that’s what separates this dock from other, considerably cheaper options.

The specs are good and the speed specs are impressive.

Shipping
Fast shipment parcel arrived before due date 4 day , product from startech has great after service support.
Competitiveness
It is pricey but most similar docking stations on the market are at a similar price.

Afaik the only way to rotate a monitor vertically in macos is via displaylink manager which means you can only rotate 2 displays max with this dock since the 3rd monitor works but doesnt show up in displaylink manager
