Read the full AWS blog here


Introduction

Amazon Web Services (AWS) recently published a partner blog post highlighting Corbado as recommended solution to significantly boost passkey adoption when integrated with Amazon Cognito. While Cognito provides essential passkey capabilities natively, AWS acknowledges the importance of specialized layers for seamless user adoption at scale.

Why Cognito Alone Isn’t Enough

Cognito sets the foundation for passkey usage, but widespread adoption requires overcoming additional challenges:

  • User Experience Optimization: Ensuring seamless and intuitive authentication across devices is vital to prevent user friction and drop-offs.

  • Error Handling and Fallbacks: Effective error management and robust fallback strategies are critical to reducing user frustration and support tickets.

  • Detailed Analytics: Continuous monitoring of adoption, engagement and troubleshooting through comprehensive analytics ensures optimal adoption.

How Corbado Complements Cognito

AWS identifies Corbado as an ideal partner to overcome these adoption hurdles by providing:

  • Enhanced UX Components: Corbado’s optimized interface components handle cross-device logic, error scenarios and fallback processes, making user authentication seamless.

  • Advanced Rollout Management: Corbado enables controlled rollouts with A/B testing, targeted user segmentation and gradual deployments, maximizing successful user transitions.

  • Real-time Analytics: Enterprises gain insights through detailed telemetry and analytics, helping to refine strategies continuously.


Measurable Benefits with Corbado + Cognito

Organizations using Corbado alongside Cognito report:

  • Faster Authentication: Users experience login speeds that are 4–6 times faster compared to traditional methods.

  • Reduced Support Costs: Improved UX and error handling dramatically lower the frequency of authentication-related support issues.

  • Higher Adoption Rates: Enhanced UX and strategic rollouts drive significantly better user adoption metrics.
