Thoughts on DA Davidson Technology Team?

I noticed that there isn't much about DA Davidson on WSO, but they have been growing rapidly across all their groups and just acquired Marlin & Associates this summer, a boutique fintech investment bank in New York. Their tech team has been picking up pace and had +$20 billion in transactions YTD which seems very solid. Curious to hear any thoughts about them as a firm and how they fare with other MM banks?
