Adding accessories to your workstation computer can provide several advantages and improve your work flow in various ways, depending on the specific accessory you choose. There are several great items that you can add to your desktop or laptop workstation which will enable you to accomplish more tasks faster, easier, and more effectively.
Here are just some accessories we always recommend adding with any new workstation you get for yourself or your team:
- Monitor: A larger and higher-quality monitor can help you work more efficiently by allowing you to see more information at once, reducing the need for scrolling or switching between windows. You can add multiple monitors to your setup for even greater screen real estate as well. We recommend 2 monitors or more for each workstation for optimal screen usage.
- Keyboard and Mouse: An ergonomic keyboard and mouse can help you work for longer hours with less discomfort or fatigue, allowing you to type faster and more accurately. Wireless based keyboard and mice are also a great addition which can help eliminate additional cables on your desk.

Many docking stations can facilitate multiple monitors, several USB based accessories, and internet connectivity for your workstation all through one cable. It’s important to make sure your device is compatible with the docking station your considering.
