The 89th annual Fire Department Instructors Conference (FDIC) kicks off on April 18th at the Indiana Convention Center and Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis.  Last year, over 35,000 people attended from 53 countries – year after year it continues to be the world’s largest event for the fire sector of public safety. The conference features classroom sessions, hands on training and a huge exhibition area with over 900 exhibitors featuring a variety of products and services.

-Jeff Pilz, Fire Chief, Hillside Fire Department, Hillside, IL

“Several other departments were using Aladtec and they were happy with the ease of use. I was unable to find another product that could do the job that Aladtec does. The other systems were too complex.”

“I estimate we’re saving about 100 hours a month by using Aladtec. Gaining all these hours allows us to dedicate more time to a variety of important civic duties, resulting in a positive impact on the communities we serve.  The mobile functionality makes it accessible to everyone all the time, which is perfect for our volunteer and part-time staff.”
-Landon Churchill, Engineer/EMT, Colorado River Fire Rescue, Rifle, CO

“Finding a workforce management system that’s easy to use was our main focus. Aladtec is ideal because it’s user friendly for all levels of computer capabilities. We tried the free demo and immediately saw the advantages of the system’s online schedule, customizable forms, various reporting options and a number of other valuable features.”
-Susan Cabot, Secretary, Austintown Fire Department, Youngstown, OH

“We love just how much Aladtec can do.  Before we were using multiple programs each with a separate cost for scheduling, calendars, equipment and maintenance tracking.  Aladtec has everything we need in one place.  It is a powerful program but is very easy to use.  The attentiveness from the support staff has been excellent.”
-Leslie Lindquist, Rescue Chief, Saint Michael’s College Fire and Rescue, Colchester, VT
