Back to All Partners VERIZON INVITE Networks is a Verizon business partner, architecting and managing Verizon enterprise connectivity, SD-WAN, and business communication solutions for organizations in Salt Lake City, Phoenix, and the greater Mountain West. INVITE handles circuit design and procurement, WAN architecture, failover planning, and ongoing managed network operations — so your connectivity is engineered to your business requirements, not just ordered off a price sheet. TL;DR: INVITE Networks architects and manages Verizon enterprise connectivity and networking solutions for mid-market and enterprise clients in Utah and Arizona. From dedicated internet access and MPLS to Verizon SD-WAN and business wireless, INVITE handles procurement, design, and ongoing management. This page is for IT directors and network engineers evaluating a Verizon partner who can own the network design and managed operations for their organization. What does INVITE Networks deliver as a Verizon business partner? INVITE Networks is an authorized Verizon business partner with expertise in enterprise connectivity design and managed network operations. INVITE’s approach starts with an assessment of the customer’s current network topology, bandwidth requirements, SLA needs, and budget — then designs a Verizon solution that fits the actual environment rather than defaulting to a standard package. Engagements include circuit ordering and project management, CPE configuration and deployment, failover and redundancy design, and integration with existing SD-WAN or firewall infrastructure. INVITE also provides ongoing managed network services layered on top of Verizon circuits — monitoring uptime and performance, managing failover events, handling carrier escalations, and providing reporting that gives IT leadership visibility into network health. For organizations that want a single managed services partner responsible for both the carrier relationship and the network operations, INVITE provides that accountability. Why do Salt Lake City, Phoenix, and Mountain West organizations choose INVITE for Verizon connectivity? IT teams in Utah and Arizona choose INVITE because carrier procurement and network design are operationally intensive — and a poorly designed WAN architecture or mismanaged circuit creates problems that ripple into every application and user experience. INVITE’s network engineers have designed multi-site WAN environments across healthcare, financial services, and professional services customers, bringing expertise in diverse circuit design, BGP routing, and SD-WAN overlay architecture that carrier sales teams don’t provide. A Phoenix-based healthcare organization with eight clinic locations engaged INVITE to redesign its WAN using Verizon dedicated internet access with an SD-WAN overlay. INVITE scoped the circuit requirements per site, managed the Verizon provisioning project across all eight locations, deployed and configured SD-WAN appliances, and moved the organization from a single-circuit-per-site model to an active-active design with automatic failover. The organization transitioned to INVITE’s managed network services for ongoing operations, and has not experienced a site outage since implementation. How does INVITE manage Verizon connectivity as part of its managed network services? INVITE manages Verizon connectivity through continuous monitoring, proactive incident response, and carrier management. Network operations tools monitor circuit performance — latency, jitter, packet loss, and utilization — against defined thresholds for each customer environment. When a circuit degrades or fails, INVITE’s operations team is alerted automatically, initiates failover where redundancy is in place, and opens a Verizon support case to drive resolution. Customers receive status updates throughout the incident rather than discovering the problem themselves. Beyond incident response, INVITE provides capacity planning services — analyzing bandwidth utilization trends and recommending circuit upgrades before congestion impacts application performance. For organizations running Microsoft 365, UCaaS platforms, or cloud workloads over Verizon circuits, INVITE also applies QoS policies and traffic shaping to prioritize latency-sensitive applications. This operational discipline is part of INVITE’s broader managed services practice, which can extend to firewall, switching, and wireless management as well. What Verizon products does INVITE architect and manage? INVITE architects and manages the Verizon enterprise portfolio across connectivity and communications. On the connectivity side, INVITE deploys Verizon Dedicated Internet Access (DIA) for primary circuits, Verizon 5G Business Internet and LTE for backup and secondary circuits, and Verizon Private IP (MPLS) for organizations requiring private WAN connectivity between locations. INVITE also deploys and manages Verizon SD-WAN solutions, integrating Verizon transport with SD-WAN platforms to create resilient, application-aware WAN architectures. For business communications, INVITE works with Verizon One Talk — Verizon’s cloud-hosted business phone solution — handling tenant configuration, device provisioning, and ongoing management. INVITE also manages Verizon business wireless accounts for organizations that want their mobile device connectivity coordinated alongside their fixed network infrastructure. All Verizon connectivity deployments can be integrated with INVITE’s cybersecurity practice to ensure network perimeter security is appropriately designed around the WAN architecture.

Frequently Asked Questions: Verizon Enterprise Connectivity Is INVITE Networks an authorized Verizon business partner? Yes. INVITE Networks is an authorized Verizon business partner. Verizon services procured through INVITE include full carrier support entitlements and are provisioned directly on the Verizon network. INVITE manages the full procurement process so customers have a single point of contact for both the circuit order and the technical deployment. Can INVITE manage our Verizon circuits if we don’t have an internal network team? Yes. Many of INVITE’s mid-market clients in Salt Lake City, Phoenix, and the greater Mountain West don’t have dedicated network engineers. INVITE’s managed network services cover circuit monitoring, incident response, carrier escalations, and performance reporting — providing expert network operations at a predictable monthly cost without the overhead of an in-house network team. How does INVITE design WAN redundancy using Verizon connectivity? INVITE designs WAN redundancy based on the customer’s uptime requirements and budget. Typical designs use Verizon DIA as the primary circuit paired with Verizon 5G Business Internet or a secondary DIA circuit for failover. For multi-site environments, INVITE designs SD-WAN overlays that route traffic across multiple circuits with automatic failover, so a single circuit failure doesn’t take a location offline. Emergency response, healthcare, and financial services customers often require sub-second failover, which INVITE designs and validates during deployment. How long does a Verizon circuit installation typically take? Verizon DIA circuit lead times vary by location and circuit type, but typically run 30 to 90 days from order to installation. INVITE manages the provisioning project on the customer’s behalf — tracking the order, coordinating site access for Verizon technicians, and preparing CPE configuration in advance so the circuit is ready for production use on installation day. INVITE provides timeline expectations at the start of the engagement so customers can plan accordingly.
