What do you like best about Cascade?

The tool is very simple to use, you can create any type of reports or dashboards that you may need.

I love the level of planning and collaboration that can be done via the tool.

Its also great to create that consistency of purpose, as everyone in the organisation can see how their actions contribute towards achieving strategy and objectives. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Cascade?

Project & task management systems are essential - but how do you know all that activity is getting you closer to achieving strategic goals? I like Cascade because it shows us how day-to-day busyness relates to company growth objectives and keeps the team focused on what's most important, rather than simply on what's urgent today. I really like the Explore view, which helps visualise goal alignment in a way I haven't seen any other tool do yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cascade?

The UI somehow manages to be occasionally too flexible (so many choices for how to structure a plan!) and too rigid (why can't I drag that task to a different project?). But the new UI version is a major improvement and with some continual tweaks will be great. Integrations are something I'm excited about for the future, although they're a bit tricky today. Next objective: get Zapier to automagically update revenue goals! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Cascade solving and how is that benefiting you?

Everyone's KPIs on one page and regularly updated is a game changer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cascade?

To be truly honest, we haven't found any downsides at this stage. We might be early-stage users but at this stage, it does everything we need it to do and more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Cascade solving and how is that benefiting you?

Trading most of our software for one has allowed our team to align on every campaign parameter as well as make sure the information is shared across all departments & most importantly tracked. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
