EngageSmart solution InvoiceCloud, which provides online engagement and payment portals for utilities, government, and insurance organizations, pairs well with both Centric’s utility and insurance practice groups. InvoiceCloud’s electronic bill presentment and payment (EBPP) platform enables organizations to give customers the online experience and self-service options of a modern enterprise, increasing customer adoption and revenue overall. HealthPay24, which is EngageSmart’s payment solution for healthcare providers and organizations, brings the same convenience and ease of use to the patient payment experience.

“EngageSmart is one of the few customer IT solution providers that is truly digital first in every way. This gives organizations a competitive advantage in being able to give their own customers a delightful experience,” said Centric Energy and Utilities Practice Lead Michael Murphy. “We are all consumers accustomed to easy digital interactions in every other business interaction from booking travel to online banking and EngageSmart makes this possible for organizations that face the imperative to innovate or die.”

“Centric Consulting’s tailored approach to digital transformation via specialized practice areas and hands-on partnership with their customers aligns well with our customer-centered technology at EngageSmart,” said EngageSmart CEO Bob Bennett. “The added ability to work with Centric to accelerate innovation within key industries gives our own customers the scale and peace of mind to know they are working with best-in-class solutions with the specialized knowledge required for smooth and seamless implementation.”
