Very Sincere And Generous

Fund: StarVest Partners, L.P.

PUBLIC:

Jeanne Sullivan and her partners have been so generous with us. They understand our business and have made several important recommendations, introductions and referrals....and this was before they started serious due diligence. (For us, business development assistance is more important than technology guidance. ) If this is an indication of how StarVest would behave in the board room, we would be delighted to have them on our team.

Have Been A Good Partner

Fund: StarVest Partners, L.P.

Posted by Anonymous on 2008-05-15

PUBLIC:

Starvest lead one of our rounds and have been a really good partner since. They are willing to take the long view and have made several intros to prospective customers , partners and other investors. They seem to have very complimentary skills and so they work tough issues as a team. We have been able to count on them and they have participated in every round since.

They work hard at networking their CEOs, advisors, and their insititutionial investors to discuss markets, common issues, and opportunities.

I'd go with them again...and they are really good people too.

Middle Of The Road

PUBLIC:

These are nice people, just not very competent. Jeanne seems ancient. Her bio says that she's had an e-mail address since 1980. So what, she seems so lost in the internet world. The questions she asks border on the silly. The other 3 partners add comparable value to Jeanne.

Good Business Strategist

Fund: StarVest Partners, L.P.

Posted by ChuckFoley on 2007-10-30

PUBLIC:

I have worked with Jeanne Sullivan before, as she was a Board member for one of my companies. She was insightful, and most importantly a creative 'out of the box' thinker. Not one to play the standard 'what have you done for me lately' role; rather, she was regularly probing where we needed to be in the next few years and what moving parts had to line up to get us there. Most importantly, when we agreed on the strategic direction, she helped to get resources from the other Board members lined up to hit the target.
