Height is the only measurement that matters
Most desks sit 29 to 30 inches from the floor. A cabinet needs to clear that with enough room to open the top drawer, so under about 27 inches is the range to look in. Every product page states the height.
Braked casters, not just casters
A cabinet that rolls also rolls away when you pull a drawer. Most of these have brakes on at least two wheels, which holds the cabinet still while it is open. That is a working requirement rather than a nicety.
The top becomes a surface
Once a pedestal is out from under the desk it is a side table at desk height, which is useful for a printer or for spreading out paperwork. Check the stated top weight if you plan to leave something heavy on it.
