As others have stated, this might be a little too task specific for a device designed to be mobile. I suppose if you really needed a portable iPad Pro for various office locations this would be very useful.
At least it folds up for mobil use, but it looks pretty hefty compared to simple truly portable docks. Though pass through power on those usually adds a power brick. Does this one have a brick too?
I'd say take a look at the Twelve South's StayGo USB-C hub if you can provide our own iPad stand.

What I like about the Satechi:
1. Its cheaper and more portable than the $399.00 Kensington iPad Docking Station (even better I got a discount code from Satechi via an e-mail)
2. I really like the 'L" shaped power cable connection to the side of the iPad Pro.
3. It folds into a compact shape for storage or transport.
Like the look and design of Twelve South's StayGo, but no 3.5mm jack and 4K@30hz instead of 60hz.
It's been a while since they launched this, maybe it's due for an update.
