See who's watching the grid at 2 a.m, learn how utilities are modernizing customer experience, hear real-life lessons from an AMI 2.0 project, and discover what a best workplace award means for your utility.

When the Power Goes Out at 2 a.m., Who's Watching?

It's 2:07 a.m. 1,200 services out, and no outage event because nobody's watching the system at that hour. Your customers already know the power is out, the only question is how long they wait to hear that you know too.

Discover how PowerAssist agents, trained on your utility systems, keep nearly 2.3 million customers across North America connected to their utility, any hour, any storm.

Modernizing Customer Service,

Without Losing the Human Touch

Today's utility customers expect the same convenience and responsiveness they receive from their bank or favorite retailer. Delivering that level of service isn't easy, given staffing pressures and the complexity of utility billing. That's why many utilities are rethinking how they deliver customer service. 

Modernizing doesn't mean losing the personal touch. CustomerAssist combines AI-enabled automation, self-service portals, and customer service professionals with deep utility expertise. Automation and self-service options resolve routine requests efficiently, while our specialists focus on the situations where empathy, experience, and problem-solving matter most.

Modernizing Customer Service

For more than a decade, CustomerAssist has helped utilities deliver exceptional customer service. Today, we’re helping more than 25 utilities serve over 2.5 million customers across North America.

AMI 2.0's Hardest Questions

Replacing aging smart meters sounds straightforward, until you start asking the harder questions. What capabilities can next-generation advanced metering infrastructure unlock? When is the right time to move? And what does an AMI 2.0 transition look like when it’s happening inside an actual utility?

 

Hosted by Electricity Canada, our recent webinar explored real-life lessons from Festival Hydro’s AMI 2.0 project, highlighting that many hidden risks, like undefined goals, timeline creep, and integration complexities, can live “below the surface.”
