Juniper Networks Ranked Among World's Best in Online Support for 4th Consecutive Year

Company Inducted Into the ASP Web Support Hall of Fame for Outstanding Performance and Innovation in Online Service and Support

SUNNYVALE, CA, June 22, 2009 -- Juniper Networks, Inc. (NASDAQ: JNPR), the leader in high-performance networking, today announced that the Juniper Networks Global Customer Support Web site, the Customer Support Center (CSC), has been recognized for the fourth consecutive year as one of the "Ten Best Web Support Sites" of 2009 by the Association of Support Professionals (ASP). This prestigious award showcases excellence in online service and support. In addition, Juniper was also named to the ASP's Web Support Hall of Fame, which honors sites that have been named among the "Ten Best Web Support Sites" for at least four years.

The award winners were selected by a panel of judges with expertise in Web support design and implementation, using a scoring system based on 25 separate performance criteria. The evaluation process considers overall usability, design, and navigation; knowledgebase and search implementation; interactive features; customer experience; and how companies addressed a major site development challenge.

The 10 winning sites will be profiled in a book titled, "The Ten Best Web Support Sites of 2009," which will be published by the ASP in July 2009.

"Juniper has shown a rare commitment to continuous web improvement, even after developing a site that most companies would consider already world-class," said Jeffrey Tarter, executive director, ASP. "This ongoing improvement is reflected in the fact that Juniper has won the Top Ten awards from ASP for the last four consecutive years."

"Thousands of Juniper Networks customers log into our online Customer Support Center for assistance each and every day," said Brad Kashani, senior vice president, Worldwide Customer Services, Juniper Networks. "Our desire is to reach our valued customers wherever they are, while enabling them to find the support information, answers, and tools that they need, the first time, using their preferred channel of communication. It's an honor to have the ASP recognize our work again in 2009 in creating a compelling online support experience, and the award further validates our position as one of the true global leaders in customer services and support."
