Automation Nation 2017 Hackathon

Calling all Automation Nation innovators!

Today, the ability to create a more seamless experience with your software solutions is easier than ever. And we want you to show us just how easy it can be to extend the functionality of ConnectWise Automate. During Automation Nation 2017, we’re giving you the opportunity to show off your skills and enhance your ConnectWise Automate experience by utilizing the SDK. Demonstrate how you can unleash innovation, take ConnectWise Automate out of the box and solve for your specific business challenges.

What you are solving for

For the Hackathon, we will have a few scenarios for a team of technology integrators to solve for using our latest and greatest SDK.  Contestants will have the opportunity to attend a pre-day session to learn more about the Ignite Manager and the Computer screen from an Automate Developer.  Time to take the Computer Management screen and Ignite Manager to the next level!

All integrations will be judged on the following criteria:

• Technical Difficulty
• UI
• Usefulness
