"Cascade saves us a lot of time and effort. We are able to be much more efficient and effective in achieving our goals."

“Cascade has really helped us refine the way we approach strategy—we are able to adapt and refocus our goals and priorities based on the insightful staff updates we review each quarter. As a result, we have developed a more unified vision of the impact we aim to achieve through our mission-driven work."

"I'm excited to walk into our strategy kick-off with a structure in place at both a corporate level and an operational level."

"Very scalable solution that allows the executive team to build and own their strategy and then quickly cascade this to all levels. Has the broadest scope of any strategy execution tool I have seen at this price point. Easy to use, fast to deploy, fantastic functionality out of the box."

“Cascade is a single point of ownership for our people, where they can see absolutely everything relating to their role.”

"I hold all my one-to-ones in Cascade on a monthly basis. I use it to track what we talk about, and it really helps me to track accountability so that I know what everyone is responsible for."

“Sometimes it takes an investment but it also takes commitment. We needed to be intentional and deliberate in tracking our strategic decisions to maximize our impact. Our diverse initiatives required alignment, and risk mitigation was crucial.”

"With Cascade's support, we've become agile, insightful, and more efficient in our operations."

"Our dream is for everyone to have a home with a proper floor, where no one has to sleep on the ground. With this dream, we invite everyone to contribute to overcoming the situation of poverty in which more than 200 million people live.”

“The big shift is from everyone being enthusiastic & doing lots of work to that same thing, but in a structured way, inputting information into one place.”

"The university is a very large and complex organization and it's really a federated structure. Top down control alone doesn't work here. People need to be able to collaborate and enjoy some local empowerment. Linked with information and visibility across teams, Cascade gave them the information and opportunity to drive that collaboration."

"I really love the dashboards. For me, I'm quite a visual person and I love visual representations. The system gets its name from the notion that strategy Cascades from a high organization down to functional units and various strategic areas and projects. It makes it very easy to navigate the strategy because of the logical way that it is all structured. The setup time was fairly minimal; the time it takes for new people to learn how to use the system is negligible; it's very simple and straightforward. It's just great to finally have that representation of the linkage between the university strategy, the library strategy and all the projects and tasks that we're working on."

"As an NFP with limited resources and huge passion, it's sometimes difficult to make sure we stay on track with the big picture while juggling many balls in the air at once. Cascade offers us the perfect tool to record and track our progress throughout the year. We love that we can assign tasks across our organisation's business areas to individual staff and volunteers."

“We’re strengthening our ability to prioritize and make strategic decisions. The right decisions can be made more quickly now.”

"The functionality is intuitive to the needs of strategic planning professionals and their teams. Having the different plan interfaces and work boards allows for users to jump into exactly what they need then and there."
