IRR vs MOIC

Hi all !

Just trying to understand the relevant metrics PE funds are using to value their investments:
Why/when would a sponsor be looking at a metric instead of the other ?
I do understand the time factor difference between the two, what is still unclear to me is what metric sponsors use in their thinking (when considering an investment, when considering an exit, ...) ?

Cheers
