<p>As an ALIAS customer, you have the right to:</p>
<ul>
<li>Receive a prompt, polite response to inquiries, suggestions and problems</li>
<li>Get help with strategic planning so ALIAS serves you now and in the future</li>
<li>Be confident that your budget estimates for ALIAS systems will not be thrown into disarray by hidden or surprise charges</li>
<li>Count on technology that does not grow ineffective through indifference</li>
<li>Own and control your ballistics data</li>
<li>Rely on non-proprietary database technology that lets you share your ballistics data and collaborate with other law enforcement agencies</li>
<li>Choose from a range of support plans, including a zero-cost option, versus &ldquo;one size fits all&rdquo; pricing</li>
<li>Get prompt, knowledgeable support from a trained technician</li>
<li>Be treated fairly and never feel abused or ripped off by a company with a monopolistic attitude</li>
</ul>
<p>Our bottom line is that at Pyramidal Technologies, we promise to treat you like a valued customer and a forensic professional. If we don&rsquo;t, <a href="http://www.pyramidaltechnologies.com/contact-us/">contact me</a>. I&rsquo;ll set things straight.</p>
