About Anvil Solutions
“We make a point of employing people who fit in with our way of working – people who get along easily with others and who provide good customer service,” says founder Ashley Kirk. “We know our stuff, but we’re not so wrapped up in technology that we can’t relate to our clients on a personal level.”
Ashley started Anvil with his father, Brian, who had sound technology and business experience as founder of optometry software company Computech Systems. Ashley initially trained as a chef, but always harboured a deep interest in information technology from a young age. He took a short-term job at a software company in the late 90’s and never looked back.
Initially, when founded in 2002, Anvil concentrated on supplying firewalls and open-source file servers, along-side remote access systems built on the growing use of broadband in NZ.
It soon became clear that many small to medium businesses needed much more than that and they were asking for help. They want advice on the best hardware, systems and networks, on the appropriate software for their needs… and they need swift support when things go wrong.
In response to client demand, Anvil expanded services to become a support provider too.
“Our name suggests that we forge solutions, and that’s exactly what we do”
Anvil still serves many original customers from the early 2000’s, along with a growing portfolio of clients – from small, single offices, to ventures with offices across multiple sites.
“We just do good, honest work”
“It feels good to solve problems and help people.”
Today Anvil is a team of 6 forming a boutique TSP ready to assist you with a broad range of Microsoft 365 cloud services, Bitdefender MDR security services, general IT support and more!
What our clients say
Forging Technology Partnerships
At Anvil we don’t try to do everything—we focus on what we do best and partner with those who share our vision. Instead of offering a one-size-fits-all approach, we carefully select trusted providers who share our values—experts who prioritize innovation, reliability, and strategic value.
This allows us to deliver the best solutions for your business, backed by partners who meet our high standards. When we make a recommendation, it’s because we trust it for our own business, too.
