Plan to share my single monitor to "Two" cpus by using this product

High Resolution 2port VGA switch 2 in 1 vga sharer

Is this ok or any other alternative available ?

Its dirt cheap. Why not just try. I don't think there could be a better alternative at this price point.

You can give a try to a KVM Switch.

You can share not only monitor, but keyboard and mouse as well.
