Targeted issues

By offering a holistic approach to operations, Cascade resolves:

  • Decentralised information, often maintained on individual staffs’ PCs or mobile phones.
  • Multiple logins and passwords.
  • Lack of clarity and overview on important projects and processes.
  • No visibility on staff progress on an ongoing basis.
  • Critical client documentation expiring and blocking transactions or other business.
  • Repetitive input of the same data in to different platforms and software.
  • Staff carrying out tasks and functions in their own way and not having templates to follow.
  • The lack of affordable solution, specifically for SMEs.
