Preconfigured containers have cut licensing costs and now save our team time with faster booting
ECS-Optimized Windows can improve by giving us new generation instances rather than the old generation's AMD chips or other older technology. It should use the new generation instances, and it should also modernize the storage and the file systems that it is using because those are very old and sometimes problematic. It should also improve or add advanced configurations to the things that we are doing so it can help us and give us more efficiency and productivity in our team. It should give us good analysis, particularly more detailed analysis, with the AWS tools because it is operated by AWS. It is cloud-based, and we are getting it from AWS, so they should also integrate it with AWS better.

Automated health checks have ensured uptime and save me time on monitoring critical services
There are some things I have to look for, basically just having the ability to check if Mirth is up and running. I cannot check the data inside Mirth Connect, such as the channels, or whether they have any errors or anything. It is limited to the status of Mirth Connect, so I feel I need to start adding the channel information and the channel statuses also. If a database crashes but Mirth web service is still running and working, I will get a 200 response or the version. That means our database is not working, but Mirth Connect is up. So that is incorrect information. I do not face this issue too frequently, but still, it should be improved.

Cons

"ECS-Optimized Windows can improve by giving us new generation instances rather than the old generation's AMD chips or other older technology."
"There are some things I have to look for, basically just having the ability to check if Mirth is up and running. I cannot check the data inside Mirth Connect, such as the channels, or whether they have any errors or anything."
"Mirth Connect Health Check's scalability is pretty good for small to medium hospitals, but for bigger installations, we had issues talking about millions of messages per day, and that's why we ended up coding our own solution."
"I chose eight out of ten because on our side, it was sometimes difficult to understand what was expected from us to change in the files and in the format, but this is not necessarily related to Mirth Connect Health Check's performance."
"Customer support for Mirth Connect Health Check was okay overall; they were able to help when issues arose, but the response was not always as quick as I would have liked, indicating there is room for improvement in terms of responsiveness."
"The weakness part is that the UI is somewhat outdated, making it difficult to manage with large environments, and it requires JavaScript knowledge for advanced development."
"I believe Mirth Connect Health Check could be improved as the interface should be slightly better."
"Mirth Connect Health Check can be improved by implementing more features and making it easier and more intuitive for new users."
"Installing it on Linux is a bit harder than installing it on a Windows machine. An easier install for Linux can be made."
