Vista Equity Partners

Vista Equity Partners manages approximately $100 billion in assets under Robert F. Smith, who founded the Austin, Texas-based firm in 2000 with a pure focus on enterprise software buyouts. Smith made international headlines in 2019 when he donated $34 million to pay off the student debt of the entire Morehouse College Class of 2019. Vista's "Vista Consulting Group" provides standardized operating playbooks to every portfolio company, driving measurable improvements in sales, customer success, and product development metrics.
