As a feature of our warranty service, VirTra Systems customers can receive periodic upgrades to their firearms training simulators. The warranty service, which can include both software and hardware, ensures years of 100% up-time at no expense to the customer.
Additionally, rather than outsourcing service to a 3rd party, VirTra delivers service personally, sending Systems Installers into the field to support customers.
With a variety of products to support, our Systems Installers are frequently away from home, traveling for weeks on end ensuring customers have the latest VirTra technology. Lloyd Laney, System Installer extraordinaire, is currently out in the field on just such a trip.
