Current ticketing is Tito - they have a very basic API available I tested it 2 days ago and was able to get current ticketed people back as a huge response.

Finance I was also thinking of integrating with Quickbooks Online for now as well. It limits the amount of financial data we have to track inside the app. It's also really convenient to loop in an accountant or bookkeeper if our data is already in QB

CC Processing We could just leverage something like Stripe for now, this will prevent us from having to build out merchant account integration at first

Email MailChimp would be great to add attendees and group them by their types etc, plus the magnitude of other features they have including posting to social networks and analytics.

Mandrill for our transaction emails, receipts, invoices, etc. Also for inbound email so we can track conversations with speakers, sponsors, vendors, etc along side a ticket for organization

Content https://github.com/russross/blackfriday would be pretty decent for using markdown to generate our content (similar to hugo), it supports custom rendering engines.

Something like https://stackedit.io/ would be awesome for writing content/posts

More more to come... :)
