Case Study: A Cloud Guru achieves over $550,000 AUD in annual savings with Auth0

A Cloud Guru Saves Over $550,000 AUD Annually by Using Auth0

A Cloud Guru, founded in 2015, is an e‑learning leader that trains IT teams and individuals on cloud platforms and currently serves over 800,000 enrolled students. Facing the need to protect sensitive customer data, provide enterprise-ready single sign‑on, and get products to market quickly, the company recognized that building and maintaining an in‑house identity solution would be costly and slow—estimated at roughly $550,000 AUD per year and several full‑time engineers.

A Cloud Guru adopted Auth0 for authentication and SSO, enabling a secure, enterprise‑grade identity solution that was market‑ready in weeks. The move eliminated the need for an internal identity team, saved more than $550,000 AUD annually in estimated operating costs, reduced development time to launch, and gave the company and its customers greater confidence in data protection.
