We look forward to returning again next year and would like to say thank you to the Comms Dealer team for putting on such a fantastic event!

Members of the ProVu team participated in the Gauntlet Games in Manchester at the weekend. Covering a 10km course, the team were faced with a variety of obstacles from monkey bars suspended over ice-cold water, to space hopper races and foam-filled slides.
With a fancy dress theme of ‘Superheroes’, we took the opportunity to bring our reseller portal, ProSys to life. Dressed as each individual component of our system, our team consisted of ProSys, Ordering, Provisioning, Management, and Integration.
