Thoughts on Francisco Partners?

Can’t seem to find much info on the fund.

Aware that they invest in tech only and just raised a $17BN fund in July.

They seem pretty impressive but it would be good to get insight on their reputation & culture

How do they compare to the big tech players like silver lake and vista?
