In addition to the software / saas investing related links below, I'd look at the sites of funds of interest that have info on portcos and press releases discussing the investment. Look at the funds that fit your desired scale (ie Thoma Bravo, Vista, Silver Lake, etc. for large cap investing)
For multiples / margins / general industry trends I'd look at broader SaaS industry reports that touch on trends & multiples / recent transactions. Some of these sources include Bain PE report on tech investing, Vista insights, & insights from IBs such as HL that have software reports. Below are some older ones
