Absolutely horrible and frustrating! Advertised as being able to handle 4 separate 4k monitors, but it will only do high resolution on one. I spent hours with my firm's IT department trying to get the resolution to match on 2 HP Z27 monitors and it will not work.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I am having a lot of trouble with the docking station. Something is not working right with the communication with the docking station and the computer. All of the external items are dropping out. At this point the docking station is only good for power.

Used with an Omen 17. It had several weird issues initially, particularly with USB. They were resolved with a firmware update. There is no automatic update, you must find/download/install them manually. That should be automatic with a new device! After that, however, it has been great. I am not (yet) stressing it with more than one 4K display, but expect to soon. I guess I will need to manually check for updates in the future too since it isn't automatic.

As with the dock that I had previously on the EliteBook from 2018, the connected monitors will turn to black for a few seconds every once in a while. With my old dock, this was eventually fixed with a patch, but it was frustrating that it didn't work out of the box. The new dock has the same issue, which is remarkable to say the least.

Works great on my Z-Book. I would give it 5 stars if it that a headphone jack (I had to purchase new USB speakers). The power button on the dock starts the computer every time. In 2 weeks of use, it has been flawless powering 4 HD monitors (one is USB3)
