In the small business environment, it’s no secret that almost every company is looking into ways to improve computer usage efficiency. While there are numerous options out there to do this, such as investing into newer computers, faster processors, or larger hard drives, the dual monitor workstation is a solid option for any space and not to be overlooked.
What Is A Dual Monitor Workstation?
A dual monitor setup makes use of two screens which operate from a single computer. They are a functional extension of a visible workstation. With the proper components and setup, one computer can even support three or more monitors, as most dedicated video cards come with multiple ports which make dual displays more than possible. In other cases, a splitter is required. Take a good look at your computer information, or more specifically your video card information, to figure out whether your system can support dual, or even multiple, monitors.
The Advantages Of A Dual Monitor Workstation
Multiple monitor setups offer numerous benefits. Two monitors allow you to run multiple applications at the same time. On the left hand screen you can have one application running, while on the other an entirely different program runs. If your business requires employees to run multiple programs at once and constantly switch between tabs, this will make everything so much easier to manage. It makes sharing data between applications a breeze. It also allows critical information for a project to be in easy reach on one screen, while the actual work can be done on the other screen. This can massively increase productivity in the office. It allows employees to have tutorials, training videos, and other educational resources on tap while they complete their work.
A Dual Monitor Workstation Is Simple To Use
While they initially need to be configured by a computer specialist in many cases, the continued use of dual monitors is actually incredibly simple. They are located in the same controls as your individual monitor, and require no extra software.
