Our Investment in MontyCloud
Riverside Acceleration Capital (RAC) is thrilled to announce our investment in MontyCloud, a Seattle‑based leader in autonomous cloud operations (CloudOps) serving Managed Service Providers (MSPs) and enterprise IT teams.
Modern cloud environments are powerful but increasingly complex. As the cloud continues to proliferate, MSPs and IT teams are frequently tasked with managing sprawling multi‑tenant environments, rising cloud costs, and fast‑changing security and compliance requirements. Most CloudOps tools were designed for technical users, requiring deep engineering expertise, often leaving organizations highly dependent on technically savvy teams, manual processes and fragmented tooling. The result: slower onboarding, limited visibility, and cloud operations that don’t scale.
Founded in 2018, MontyCloud was built to change this. Their no‑code, multicloud platform simplifies cloud management by providing a true “single pane of glass” with automated controls. This allows MSPs and IT teams to deploy, secure, operate, and optimize cloud environments, without writing scripts or stitching together multiple tools. MontyCloud’s platform automates day‑2 operations such as governance, security enforcement, patching, cost optimization, and compliance, which has helped enable teams to manage up to 10x more tenants with the same resources.
MontyCloud has become a trusted partner for MSPs looking to increase efficiency and unlock new revenue opportunities. The platform helps accelerate migrations, surface high‑margin managed services opportunities, and automate tagging required to capture valuable cloud‑provider incentives. These capabilities support a powerful flywheel, where MSPs can manage more cloud spend, generate more revenue, and deepen their partnership with cloud providers, who, in turn, can introduce MontyCloud to additional customers.
The company has also earned meaningful recognition from Amazon Web Services (AWS). MontyCloud is one of a select group of partners globally to achieve AWS Built‑In Competency, reflecting deep technical integration and alignment with AWS’ strategic priorities. This relationship has contributed to impressive customer momentum, most notably within MontyCloud’s MSP channel, which has helped drive rapid growth in cloud spend under management and recurring revenue.
RAC was excited to lead MontyCloud’s Series B financing, supporting their continued platform innovation, multicloud expansion, and global go‑to‑market scaling. We believe MontyCloud is well-positioned to enable the next era of autonomous CloudOps by allowing organizations to simplify operations, improve governance, and drive meaningful financial impact through automation and intelligent execution.
