In this new era of digital transformation, outdated customer relationship management models are evolving at a rapid pace.

In fact, 70% of customers expect their utility company’s website to include a self-service application(1).

With an online service request functionality, customers also receive a variety of benefits, including autonomy, 24/7 access, and also time-saving.

Smartflex has a 24/7 self-service portal that allows utility customers to visualize information and historical data about their profile, accounts, products, and payments. Thanks to an intuitive graphical interface, customers can also see their current usage and compare it to historical data, as well as communicating with the utility company through its built-in chat. Our portal also allows customers to make requests, pay bills, start and stop services, and enroll in many programs such as rebates, pledges, donations, payment plans, automatic bill payment, paperless billing, and budget billing.

Among all customer service digital channels, self-management options offer the best value to both utility companies and their customers. Portals focus on empowering customers so they can manage their services on their own, and as a result, improve their relationship with their provider. With the increase in the use of these channels, utility companies must find a way to provide self-service portals to meet their customers’ expectations. Smartflex helps companies to digitally service customers, reduce service center costs and, at the same time, improve sales, post-sales, and customer service availability.
