Case Study: monday.com achieves 78% application coverage and 3x identity coverage with Cerby

monday.com reaches 78% app coverage and saves 5,700+ IT hours with Cerby

monday.com, a rapidly growing company with over 2,100 employees, faced a significant security and operational challenge. Their engineering-first culture encouraged teams to adopt specialized applications, but hundreds of these apps could not integrate with their identity provider, Okta, because they lacked support for standards like SAML or SCIM. This created a major blind spot, forcing IT to manually manage access for these disconnected apps at a cost of over 3,300 hours annually.

To solve this, monday.com implemented Cerby, a platform designed for applications that don't fit the traditional identity mold. Cerby integrated these apps with Okta, enabling automated user provisioning, deprovisioning, and a seamless single sign-on experience. The results were substantial: identity coverage for applications jumped from 20% to 78%, saving over 3,300 IT hours and $400,000 annually. Cerby also provided full audit readiness and saved an additional $130,000 by identifying unused software licenses.
