"With Cascade's support, we've become agile, insightful, and more efficient in our operations."
"The ability to see a simple, graphic layout [of] our strategic initiatives, who's working on them, what is the expected date of completion and what is their current progress. As a manager, Cascade makes it easy for me to stay on top of strategic initiatives so that they get done. Being a big company, we really exploit the ability to have different plans. Each area has its leader and that leader is in charge of his own plan. This helps us to independently view the work of different teams under the same layout."
“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.”
"Cascade's framework made us sit back and kind of focus on what we are really trying to accomplish, not just big picture items, but steps that get you there."
“The transparency up and down the ladder the breadth that we're going to be able to see, it's very exciting!”
"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."
“Cascade keeps us focused on strategy, so we're not wasting time on things that aren't valuable to our business.”
“It’s been really helpful to have one place where I can go to see how we’re actually doing a great tool to have a pulse on our business.”
"We knew we needed a tool in order to monitor how we were doing against those objectives we set for ourselves."
"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."
"By putting all our goals into a single tool, and looking at it all together, we realised we had gaps. We were then able to focus and align. Cascade was able to match the software to our tools and processes, which made it a easier to roll out to the whole organization."
"Innovation is such a huge focus for us and it can be very hard to know when/where innovation is happening. Cascade allows us to pinpoint where innovation is taking place."
“Cascade keeps our strategy alive and in the cloud. It helps me to constantly focus our goals back to our vision.”
"When it comes to execution, it's on them to do it. They take full ownership, and they take accountability. That creates pride in the outcome and a beautiful Cascade of results down the line."
"I would highly recommend it. It is very easy to use and the plan can be sliced and diced in many ways and many levels. We took some time to celebrate some major accomplishments in our strategic plan which was very exciting. Additionally, I use snapshots to provide updates to the City Manager during my regularly scheduled Public Works updates."
