In 2021, it was acquired by Clearlake Capital for $5.2 billion and taken private, with Vector Capital also making a minority investment.
In 2017, Cornerstone received a $300 million investment from LinkedIn and Silver Lake. The 2021 acquisition by Clearlake Capital valued the company at approximately $5.2 billion, with shareholders receiving $57.50 per share in cash.
