I've heard varying degrees of feedback on Thoma Bravo - but I'm curious what the general consensus is? It appears, from the outside, that they allow their investment targets to remain autonomous - but I'm curious how hands off (or on) they are.

Semi-related: If you are in the market for an email provider for transactional emails, I encourage you to use Postmark. It's a developer focused company with a simple pricing model and great documentation, and their IPs tend to have great reputation scores. I don't work for them, but I switched from one of these two and am very happy I did.

And another company acquired coming from efounders, a startup studio specialized in SaaS.

I think efounders track record is really interesting, out of 19 companies, 4 acquisition and 3 other project that seems to work very well (AirCall, Front and Spendesk).

All their companies are here for the curious: https://www.efounders.com/companies

Every company acquisition says this in the beginning. Every.
