Silverpeak were the standout choice for us — not just because of their deep expertise in B2B SaaS and global reach, but because they truly understood how to position and market our business. That commercial lens set them apart from other corporate finance advisors. During the transaction, they integrated seamlessly with both our senior leadership and legal teams, which was critical in navigating the exit process. The team worked relentlessly, handling complexity with clarity and ultimately driving the deal to a successful close. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.
