Reputation of Tech-focused Boutiques on par with tech groups in BB/EB?

Hey guys, there seems to be a lot of ibanks sprouting up, especially on the west coast who deal only in tech advisory. I went through CapIQ and compiled a list of tech investment banks, and was wondering if we can establish a ranking for the following banks with regards to exit opps, deal volume, and general reputation in their space: Allen & Co. Arma Partners Code Advisors GP Bullhound LionTree Advisors FT Partners Qatalyst Shea & Co. Vista Point Advisors

-I understand that some of these banks are headquartered in Europe, but focusing only on their reputations and exit opps as it pertains to North American operations.

Additionally, if one cannot get an analyst role at a BB or EB, how would the exit opps coming out of one of these banks fare? Guess what I'm trying to understand is where these banks fall into the pecking order of BB, EB, middle market, boutique landscape as I think it would be unfair to write some of these guys off as regular boutiques when they in fact have amazing dealflow and are competing on the regular with the tech groups at their BB/EB counterparts.
