Case Study: mrUsta achieves 65% IT operational cost savings with Microsoft Azure

Cloud-powered marketplace cuts IT operational costs by 65%

mrUsta is a UAE-based startup marketplace that connects local service providers (plumbers, carpenters, AC technicians, etc.) with customers. As the platform grew, the small team needed a secure, scalable solution that simplified hosting, databases, notifications and monitoring so releases wouldn’t be delayed by complex infrastructure and maintenance.

mrUsta adopted Microsoft Azure with ASP.NET—using auto-scaling, Azure SQL, Notification Hubs, Blob Storage and automated server launches—to streamline operations. The move cut IT operational costs by 65% through test/dev automation, freed the IT team for business-critical work, and delivered a consistently reliable experience for users.
