CiviConnect: How do we end the scavanger hunt?

Speaker(s): 
Tim Otten

CiviCRM sits in the middle - exchanging data with your CMS, payment processor, email service, SMS service, spreadsheets, ad nauseum. CiviCRM is also extremely flexible - supporting multiple CMSs, multiple payment processors, multiple email providers, multiple SMS providers, ad nauseum. These are great power features, but they also come with a cost - complexity. The on-boarding process for a new organisation requires evaluating and configuring a plethora of integration options, and the configuration is not always easy.

How can we find a balance that resolves this complexity - so that new organisations have a great experience -- while preserving the power and freedom that we all expect? For this session, I'd like to demo a new technology in 4.6.5 which can reduce each configuration to a couple clicks - and have a dialog about the business models that go along with it.
