CQC is a very powerful product, and that causes a lot of folks to think that it is something that they'd never figure out. But we understand that it has a learning curve and have always had a 'quick start' scheme to help you get a fairly nice setup without any need to dig into CQC's hard core customization features.
Here is a Youtube playlist that demonstrates what is involved. This one picks up after the first few videos of the main playlist, which shows you how to install CQC, do some basic setup, and how to install device drivers. At that point you can use the quick start scheme to generate a nice set of touch screens in multiple resolutions and for multiple rooms. You don't need to watch the other videos in order to go through these and get a feel for what is involved.

* I had to 'break' the URL above because the forum software doesn't seem to allow you to post a playlist, it just embeds the first video. Remove the spaces to get the actual URL.
Though it's not officially released yet, this will also get you nice, all local, voice control over these same features using our new Jarvis feature, which we currently have released to our existing customers for evaluation and feedback. Once it is ready to go, you can have very nice voice control as well. Here is a quick and dirty preview video of how the voice control works:

It's far more conversational and natural than the Echo can provide, though we support the Echo as well if you want to use that. But the automatic support for the 'quick start' functionality is only supported via the Kinect 2.0 Sensor, because it allows us to support the kind of back and forth that you hear in the example video above.
