After year and a half it works sporadically
Bought this year and a half ago and it worked great for 18 months and now it works sporadically. Sometimes the computer recognizes it and other times it doesn't. I've downloaded the latest driver and it still works sporadically.

Works like a charm under Windows 11
No need to install any drivers, they are installed automatically in Windows 11 and my third screen now works with the correct resolutions already configured.
Once connected to the computer, you have to wait 1 or 2 minutes before everything is correctly configured though.

Doesn't work on some monitors
Doesn't give enough signal for some monitors. They never come out of sleep.

Does exactly what I needed! This is excellent
I have a laptop with just VGA and HDMI. I have two external monitors, one has DVI and DisplayPort, but no HDMI (it's a 1200 res unit), and my other unit has HDMI and displayport but no DVI. Basically didn't have a way to light them both up (can't use the vga and the HDMI from the laptop at the same time (aarrgghh). So, saw this and PRESTO - two monitors both running at 1200 res, it even (by pure fluke I guess) set itself up as my right hand monitor - exactly what I needed. It's brilliant.

Macbook Pro
I bought this to add a second display to my Startech Thunderbolt dock. However, I didn't realize until I tried to install it that Startech doesn't provide an OSX driver for this device. I was pretty bummed out until I found this article:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/19185308#19185308
This did the trick for me. I installed the driver recommended in this article and the adapter now works great. I have this device plugged into one of the USB3.0 ports on a Startech Thunderbolt dock. I now have two HDMI displays connected through my Thunderbolt dock. One connected with a thunderbolt to HDMI adapter cable and the other with this adapter.
Not sure why Startech doesn't just support and provide this driver directly.
I have a Macbook Pro running Mavericks.

It works fine obviously if drivers are always update.
I have had this adapter since three years ago. The only problem sometimes are the updates but works fine. StarTech is definitely an excellent brand for me.

Upgraded from the older VGA version
Well what can I say about this product? Simply that Startech have once again delivered a great device that gives the ability to easily add extra monitors to a laptop or desktop. I had previously been running the older VGA versions for a number of years and I have to say they worked flawlessly.
My reason for buying the newer ones is that I upgraded my monitors so thought that I would take the time to upgrade the cards as well. I have been using these now for over a year with no issues. I have 4 of these cards connected to my personal laptop. I can also unplug them and plug them into my work laptop with no issues either.
Simply if you want an easy way to add more monitors then buy these. I know next time I swap my monitors in a year or so I will also be upgrading the video cards to the 4K ones as the Startech USB video cards have not let me down over the last 7 years I have been using these and their predecessors.

Works Good
I've been using the adapter for a few months now and it's been working fine. I wish it had support for Linux/Ubuntu.

Excellent HDMI Adapter
I got this for those that needed to connect to our conference room big screen and didn't have an HDMI port. Have had no issues.
