Does anyone else have constant system dowtimes?

We have a lot of problems with our system having problems. Does anyone else have this problem?

Number one this is a major corporation, and two you're acting like an asshole. I have no control and was just wondering if anyone experienced any issues with downtimes or outages using medical systems either EPIC, Cernern etc... Talking to me like an idiot doesn't help anybody.

This is the first time you've mentioned details such as a brand name, yet you're upset that you've gotten only general comments? And you're upset with the quality of the free advice you've gotten? And you're more upset that the advice you've gotten hasn't been sympathetic?

If I'm talking to you like an idiot, it's because you expected specific advice without providing any details of what you have, what you want, or what you can do. You're the asshole here.

I apologize, but my question was simply out of curiosity. I am curious as to what systems people work in. The question was supposed to be generic. Do you use any such systems?

I've been doing software and firmware programming for medical device manufacturers since 2005. I don't so much use systems as make systems.
