One of the biggest concerns for building managers is figuring the needs of their residents. Every resident has a different way to ask for maintenance help. Some like doing everything on their own, while others need extra help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The job of a building manager is without any doubt, very tough. Catering to the needs of your residents and making sure they\u2019re safe and comfortable is top priority.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thankfully, with the advent of new technology\u2014specifically IOT\u2014everything is becoming easier. But how is IOT changing the way residents ask for maintenance help?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s take a look:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Helps Boost maintenance team Performance<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Automation can make your job easier. By keeping track of maintenance teams and keeping an eye out for potential issues that can cause major problems later on, IOT can help boost team performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example:<\/strong>\u00a0If a resident is using Amazon\u2019s Alexa, they can easily connect it with their MyCoop software. This way, they can simply “talk” to Alexa for repairs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s say resident A has a problem with a leaky faucet. They can use Amazon\u2019s Alexa to lodge a complaint with the building\u2019s management so that the problem can be quickly fixed. Alexa can automatically lodge a complaint through MyCoop without the resident having to go downstairs physically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What this does is help your employees stay on their toes and quickly respond to the problems of residents ASAP. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

No More Delays<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"No<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

One of the perks of IOT is that when it comes to addressing resident problems, you won\u2019t have to worry about delays. Devices like Alexa, once connected with MyCoop, will automatically lodge complaints on behalf of tenants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You will then get a notification that resident A or B need assistance. You can then address the problem immediately if it\u2019s an emergency. This way, you won\u2019t be wasting time and can quickly get to the bottom of the problem. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Everything is Stress-Free<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

You won\u2019t have to run around, trying to recall which resident had complained about a certain problem. Everything will be in your MyCoop software. You can quickly browse through a list of complaints and address them accordingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When everything is organized and easily accessible, it\u2019ll all become stress-free. In addition, all the building members can interact with one another without compromising their privacy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
