Boosting Business Continuity: anvil and ProVu Unveil New IoT-Powered Failover Solution
By combining anvil's market-leading vM2M IoT platform with ProVu's trusted telecoms hardware, this new collaboration delivers an exceptional level of connectivity resilience to UK businesses, ensuring they stay online no matter the circumstances.
In today’s digital-first world, even a moment of lost connectivity can mean missed sales, disrupted operations, and damaged customer confidence. That’s why anvil are proud to announce a new strategic partnership with ProVu Communications, a trusted leader in telecoms hardware distribution.
This collaboration brings anvil’s market-leading IoT platform, vM2M, to power ProVu’s 4G/5G failover router solutions, delivering a new level of connectivity resilience to UK businesses.
Supporting business continuity through intelligent connectivity
ProVu’s 4G / 5G range of routers are now available with anvil’s vM2M SIM technology, offering resilient multi-network IoT connectivity that seamlessly takes over when a primary broadband connection fails (or before primary connectivity is installed).
This means ProVu’s resellers can now provide robust internet failover options as part of their broadband router portfolios, helping ensure their customer’s businesses stay online. From retail environments keeping card machines running, to education settings meeting compliance demands, to 24/7 warehousing operations that can’t afford a second of downtime, this joint solution is designed to deliver true business continuity.
A simple, scalable solution for today’s connected businesses
Our multinetwork SIMs give access to all four networks across the UK, including EE, Vodafone, O2 and Three, so you’re always covered. Combined with our powerful central management platform, ProVu’s partners can now offer a solution that is:
- Easy to deploy
- Secure and scalable
As digital adoption continues to accelerate across every sector, connectivity is no longer a luxury; it’s essential infrastructure. When it fails, the costs are significant.
Why now?
As anvil Managing Director Alan Shraga explains:
“A brief loss of internet can impact revenue, productivity, and customer trust. The solution that ProVu are deploying is designed to prevent these disruptions with intelligent, reliable connectivity. By partnering with ProVu, we’re combining our IoT offering and automated ordering with their proven hardware expertise to deliver a standout solution for UK businesses, one that isn’t available from anyone else in the market.”
ProVu’s Managing Director, Justin Carl, adds:
“We’re launching the most effective, straightforward and reliable router failover solution on the market. Our customers and partners can now deliver truly resilient connectivity and with anvil’s vM2M powering it behind the scenes, they can do so with complete confidence.”
Connectivity that keeps business moving
Recent research revealed that connectivity outages cost the UK economy over £17.6 billion in lost output in just 12 months — with £5.7 billion of that loss coming from London alone. These figures highlight the critical need for proactive, intelligent failover solutions.
At anvil, we’re proud to be helping reduce this risk by making enterprise-grade resilience more accessible — and we’re excited to do so alongside a forward-thinking partner like ProVu.
Together, we’re helping businesses across the UK stay online, stay productive, and stay ahead. To find out more about this outstanding solution, call us today on 0800 048 4848.
