Mobile app – service request management (Juniper)
Service request management in the Juniper mobile app lets service providers, real‑estate developers, and vendors review and action warranty and walkthrough tickets while onsite. Changes sync instantly to the Juniper web app and are visible to homeowners through the homeowner portal.
