I just realized you were talking about customer facing passwords, which absolutely should be somewhat easy as people seem to be pretty blase' about their password security, but anyone with a lick of tech knowledge should be using a password manager with a random long password for every site. I use 1password which has apps for Windows, osx, ios, android and browser extensions. Then every password is as long as the site will let me with random characters.
