Should have listened to the reviews - Avis employé Employé (anonyme) Harris Computer

I feel bad for all the hospitals using Altera. They didn't know that Harris Computer would be acquiring Allscripts and completely devaluing the product. They won't invest in any actual product enhancements or improvements - because they don't care, they're not a tech company, they're not a healthcare company - they are a churn and burn growth via acquisitions company. Look at the portfolio, it's a junk yard for legacy technology that they will NEVER invest in keeping up to date, let alone competitive. The actual Harris Healthcare portfolio is the most embarrassing, run by a dinosaur, leveraging competitor platforms like Intersystems (a tech company using another tech company for their own branded solutions!!), and nothing innovative or new. It's the MS-DOS, 1980's green computer screen on the digital health world. The evidence is there in other reviews, they are quite consistent: - "Harris acquires companies with a good product and customer base, then milks those customers for all the profits they can get, while barely sustaining the product." - "Watch their acquisition patterns. Almost every quarter there is a new acquisition. The profits from acquired companies is how they satisfy their stockholders. They have to acquire companies on a steady basis to maintain their margins. Strip out profits of contracts held by acquired companies then strip out of staff over the quarter to maintain their margins. When the margins are depleted they acquire the next company." - "Acquires companies, makes promises, and nixes staff in short order" - "old technology, end of life software products"
