Cloud digital platform IVA 360 brings together more than a thousand employees of Petro Welt Technologies

2026: IVA 360 Transition Totals

As part of the program to switch to domestic software, the Petro Velt Technologies Group of Companies (PeWeTe) has switched to a domestic cloud platform with AI for communications and collaboration IVA 360 (formerly Vkurse). The digital ecosystem for business communication, developed by IVA Technologies, brought together more than a thousand PeWeTe employees from different production locations. The developer of the solution announced this on February 13, 2026.

The decision to switch to the IVA 360 cloud platform was made in 2024 due to the termination of the work of the foreign service Microsoft Teams. The main objective of the project was to provide a communications service for the Group of Companies, which is not subject to sanctions and legislative risks. The company was looking for a domestic cloud solution that would provide reliable video communication, the ability to collaborate on projects, transparent authorization, and fast scaling.

The implementation of IVA 360 took place in record time - in just six days: the platform took one day to connect, and the configuration and software configuration took five. The transition to the system made it possible to combine the company's production sites in Moscow and other cities of the Company's presence into a single digital environment, ensuring stable communication and cooperation in the cloud.

As of February 2026, IVA 360 is actively used in all PeWeTe divisions - managers for planning and meetings, engineering departments for coordinating project work, accounting and IT department for operational interaction.

As a result of implementation, the number of events on the platform increased significantly: if in 2024 up to 237 calls were held on peak days (an average of 160), then in 2025 this figure reached 939 events per day (an average of 730). Using IVA 360, you can reduce corporate communication costs, speed up reconciliation processes, and increase employee productivity.

The functionality of IVA 360 is fully consistent with our tasks. The platform works stably, is regularly updated and receives new useful functionality. We especially appreciate the convenience of the interface, similar to the usual foreign solutions, and the ease of administration. Thanks to IVA 360, we managed to provide all sites and employees with a modern means of communication and efficiency of interaction, - said Andrey Suntsov, Information Technology Director of Petro Velt Technologies Group.

It is important for us that the transition to domestic solutions takes place for customers as quickly and comfortably as possible. The PeWeTe case has shown that IVA 360 is able to replace foreign platforms without losing functionality and at the same time provide a high level of data security. We will continue to develop the platform ecosystem, creating solutions that help companies work efficiently and safely, "commented Yuri Matveev, CEO of IVA 360.

According to the company, PeWeTe is one of the independent suppliers of oil field services in Russia. A company of this scale with an extensive site system requires reliable tools for organizing work processes, solving economic, production and logistics issues.

Previously, PeWeTe used the solution of a foreign vendor, but the license was coming to an end. To ensure fault tolerance of the infrastructure, the company decided to switch to the Russian VKS system and turned to the task of migration to the specialists of Softline Group of Companies.

The main requirements for the creation of a communication network at the enterprise were the possibility of holding regular meetings and the availability of a set of tools necessary for joint work on projects: demonstration of developments, prompt decision-making, training of employees, etc. In addition, employees needed the ability to transparently authorize SSO and authorize using the corporate LDAP protocol, which allows them to log in through transparent authentication and quickly connect users to the corporate network of the PVT Group of Companies.

Based on the requirements, the Softline Group of Companies team made testing decisions and offered the company the VKurse system from. IVA Technologies The vendor provided favorable conditions for the transition, as a result of which PeWeTe stopped choosing on this platform.

Since the validity of the license to operate the previous solution was coming to an end, the migration had to be carried out in a short time. After the conclusion of the contract, the Softline team immediately began to transfer company employees to an updated system. Platform connection was organized in 1 day, configuration and software configuration - in 5. As a result, more than 1000 employees of the company were connected to VKursa during the week, while 5 industrial sites were combined into a single communication network.

As of March 2024, the solution has been in operation for more than a month. VKurse video communication is used to coordinate and quickly resolve work issues by heads of various levels, employees of engineering departments and accounting, specialists of IT departments, as well as representatives of counterparties who need to take part in video conferencing.

The integrated corporate messenger IVA Connect is also used in everyday work. With its help, a communication system was built in group and personal chats, the ability to synchronize and full cross-platform on all user devices is provided. During the VKS sessions, participants have access to collaboration tools - file sharing, meeting recording, demonstration of presentation files and the work screen, as well as much more.

Since PeWeTe units are located in different regions of Russia, for us the video conferencing system is an integral communication tool. We are grateful to the teams of Softline Group of companies and Vkurse for the work done. The timing of the project was compressed, but specialists quickly transferred employees to an updated cloud platform. noted Andrey Suntsov, Information Technology Director of Petro Velt Digital Solutions and Services LLC managed by Petro Velt Technologies LLC
