Austin, TX – September 3, 2025 – NinjaOne®, the automated endpoint management platform, today announced it has been named to the Forbes 2025 Cloud 100, the definitive ranking of the top 100 private cloud companies in the world, published by Forbes in partnership with Bessemer Venture Partners. The honor reinforces NinjaOne’s leadership delivering visibility, security, and control for IT teams and MSPs.
IT teams today have to support hybrid workforces and sprawling endpoint estates, and maintain strong cybersecurity and compliance, often with constricting resources. On average, only 68% of an organization’s devices are managed by IT or their third-party provider, and more than half of organizations (54%) report experiencing a cyberattack due to unknown, unmanaged, or poorly managed endpoints.* The cloud-native NinjaOne platform automates endpoint management, patching, and backup at any scale to simplify operations, improve efficiency, and lower costs for IT teams and MSPs.
“Being named to the Forbes Cloud 100 is a reflection of our team’s hard work and the success of our customers and partners. Thank you to our entire NinjaOne community for your support,” said Sal Sferlazza, CEO and co-founder at NinjaOne. “Customer success has been NinjaOne’s driving principle since we founded the company a decade ago, and our growth reflects our bold innovation and our commitment to customers and partners.”
For the tenth consecutive year, the Cloud 100 reviews submissions from hundreds of cloud startups and private companies each year. The Cloud 100 evaluation process involved ranking companies across four factors: market leadership (35%), estimated valuation (30%), operating metrics (20%), and people & culture (15%). For market leadership, the Cloud 100 enlists the help of a judging panel of public cloud company CEOs who assist in evaluating and ranking their private company peers.
This honor comes on the heels of major growth for the company. In the last year, NinjaOne:
- Announced that it secured $500 million in Series C extensions at a $5 billion valuation.
- Completed the approximately $270 million USD acquisition of SaaS backup and data protection leader Dropsuite, so NinjaOne customers can unify endpoint, server, and SaaS application backup use cases, delivering a single interface for IT and enhanced productivity for employees.
- Appointed several leaders to guide its continued growth, including John Sapone to Chief Revenue Officer, Egon Rinderer to SVP of Federal and Enterprise Growth, Aaron Kinworthy to VP of Public Sector, and Joel Carusone to SVP of Data and AI.
- Doubled down on its commitment to the public sector, achieving GovRAMP Authorization at the Moderate Impact Level and FedRAMP “In Process” Designation at the Moderate Impact Level.
- Introduced new products and features, including; NinjaOne Patch Intelligence AI, to make customers more productive and efficient, NinjaOne MDM for MacOS, which gives customers visibility, security, and full control over any endpoint, anywhere, and new capabilities that unify vulnerability management and patching workflows, ensuring a risk-based approach to patching and reducing time to remediate vulnerabilities.
“For the last decade, the Forbes Cloud 100 list has recognized the most innovative private cloud companies in the world, and this year’s standouts are among the most impressive we’ve ever seen,” said Richard Nieva, the Forbes editor of the Cloud 100. “Our honorees highlight the massive sea change that AI has brought to the enterprise, with sky-high growth and valuations.”
“As we mark the 10th year of the Cloud 100 with our 2025 rankings, we celebrate a highly competitive cohort of companies that, for the first time, collectively exceed $1 trillion in value,” said Elliott Robinson, partner at Bessemer Venture Partners. “The cloud is in a period of rapid, AI-driven transformation, with this year’s cohort demonstrating how AI is fundamentally reshaping how the best cloud companies grow, scale, and compete.”
