I’m a former forensic firearms examiner for the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP). I know what it’s like to be a happy and an unhappy ballistics systems customer.

As an ALIAS customer, you have the right to:

• Receive a prompt, polite response to inquiries, suggestions and problems
• Get help with strategic planning so ALIAS serves you now and in the future
• Be confident that your budget estimates for ALIAS systems will not be thrown into disarray by hidden or surprise charges
• Count on technology that does not grow ineffective through indifference
• Own and control your ballistics data
• Rely on non-proprietary database technology that lets you share your ballistics data and collaborate with other law enforcement agencies
• Choose from a range of support plans, including a zero-cost option, versus “one size fits all” pricing
• Get prompt, knowledgeable support from a trained technician
• Be treated fairly and never feel abused or ripped off by a company with a monopolistic attitude

Our bottom line is that at Pyramidal Technologies, we promise to treat you like a valued customer and a forensic professional. If we don’t, contact me. I’ll set things straight.
