Multi-Display Productivity

Get real-time results with Ergotron multi-monitor mounts

Getting more done has never been easier—or more comfortable. Our human-centered designs place displays exactly where they’re needed.

Toggling back and forth between documents and applications is reduced or eliminated, decreasing the time it takes to complete each task. Ergotron solutions also create healthy computing environments—further complementing workflow efficiency.

Multiple screens outperform a single monitor

Productivity Benefit	% Increase	Usability Benefit	% Increase
Fewer errors	33%	Easier task tracking	45%
Faster edits	16%	Faster performance	32%
Quicker access to tasks	6%	More comfortable	24%
The above statistics reflect increases in a dual-monitor, word-processing application. Depending on the application and configuration, increases can range between 5% and 100%.
