This is by the same company that makes the solution I use. It's a swing arm style that clamps to the back of the desk (wheras mine is on the front and only moves up and down).
This one has a bit more flexibility in terms of how high it can go, plus it can be rotated in a couple of ways, but it is at the loss of adjusting monitor to keyboard distance dynamically (more later).
There's a handhold on the front for easy manipulation:
And it is easy to show your neighbor something on your screen in an office like we have here:
We set this station up in an unused desk as a place for users in our office to try it out. The feedback so far has been generally positive. The limits we find are that there is a little bounce on the keyboard for heavy handed typists which is consistent with how my station works. Heavy typing also usually means adjusting the mechanisms so it is harder to re-position. The monitor to keyboard distance can only be changed by re-mounting the monitor bracket, this could be problematic because there is a couple of inches between mounting points so if it's only off by a little, that would usually result in it being off by a lot if changed.
Trying out the station for a day was counted as a safety and wellness activity. I only used it briefly in testing myself as I assisted with assembly. Aaron tried it out on a visit here.
