To "consider" can mean "to think about." Specifically, to think about in a careful, analytical way.
"All things considered" is a standard or stock phrase. "All things considered" means "thinking about the situation as a whole." It usually means "Not fine in absolute terms, but fine when you think about the particular situation."
For example, traffic just before a holiday can be terrible. Let's say it usually takes me two hours to drive to my daughter's house. Years ago there was a big traffic jam and a snowstorm and it took me seven hours.
This year there was rain and heavy traffic, but it wasn't too bad, and I got there in three hours.
Someone asks if the trip went well. I might say "Very well, all things considered." In ordinary circumstances, three hours would be slow. But considering that it was the day before a holiday, and considering that the weather was bad, it went very well. It went very well, all things considered.
