The team at Senteon is proud to congratulate Strategy Overview, the winners of this year’s PitchIT Competition at IT Nation 2025. This achievement highlights not only their innovation and vision but also the strength of collaboration and mentorship within the MSP community.
The PitchIT Competition, hosted annually by ConnectWise at IT Nation Connect, is a premier accelerator program designed to spotlight emerging software and service providers in the IT channel. Participants compete through several rounds of presentations, refining their go-to-market strategies, business models, and product innovations. The goal? To empower new companies that are driving meaningful change and solving real problems for Managed Service Providers (MSPs).
Each year, finalists pitch live on stage at IT Nation in Orlando before a panel of industry judges, peers, and investors. The program provides mentorship, exposure, and valuable industry connections culminating in a grand prize that helps launch the winner’s next stage of growth.
This year’s competition brought together some of the most forward-thinking companies in the MSP ecosystem. Strategy Overview stood out with their ability to blend clarity, transparency, and actionable intelligence for MSPs seeking to align their business strategy with operational performance. Their solution resonated with judges and attendees alike for its practicality and innovation delivering the kind of insights that help MSPs grow smarter and faster.
When the winner was announced during IT Nation 2025, the Strategy Overview team’s excitement was palpable. Their months of preparation, iteration, and collaboration paid off in a moment that represented not just a victory, but the validation of a vision.
As part of the PitchIT program, each participating company is paired with a mentor, a leader who helps guide them through the process, refine their messaging, and strengthen their business strategy.
This year, Zach served as Strategy Overview’s mentor, helping them shape their narrative and prepare for the final stage of the competition.
"Working with Alex from Strategy Overview and seeing his adaptability was incredibly fun and rewarding." "When we did our first practice run it felt incomplete and very feature heavy, but through ongoing meetings and conversations very quickly Alex heard my input and capitalized on all of it. Alex didn't just want to win for himself either, he wanted to have his family part of the journey and ultimately show to the industry how important the MSP space is to him."
For Senteon, mentorship is more than a professional duty, it’s part of the company’s DNA. As a cybersecurity and compliance automation platform built to simplify CIS alignment and endpoint hardening for MSPs, Senteon understands the challenges emerging vendors face in standing out and delivering measurable impact.
Supporting programs like PitchIT aligns perfectly with Senteon’s mission to elevate security, efficiency, and collaboration across the IT ecosystem.
From all of us at Senteon, congratulations to Strategy Overview on this well-deserved win. Their success represents the innovation, grit, and partnership that define the future of the IT channel.
We look forward to seeing where they go from here and to continuing to support the innovators driving positive change in the industry.
