Comparison
Strategy Hub vs Cascade.
Cascade is built for the enterprise buyer with a sales motion attached. Strategy Hub is built for the consultant or ops leader who needs to ship a working strategy dashboard this week — not after a 6-week procurement cycle.

When Cascade is the right pick
If you're a 2,000-person enterprise with a dedicated strategy office and an existing procurement relationship, Cascade's enterprise depth is hard to beat. If you're a boutique advisory firm or a 20–500 person operator who wants something working by next Tuesday, Strategy Hub will fit better.
FAQ
- Is Strategy Hub a real Cascade alternative?
- Yes — same core surface (goals, KPIs, initiatives, dashboards, public reporting) without the enterprise sales motion or multi-seat minimums. Consultants and ops leaders can self-serve a workspace in under 10 minutes.
- How is pricing different?
- Cascade quotes per-seat enterprise pricing and requires a sales call. Strategy Hub publishes pricing, includes a 14-day free trial with no card, and offers a Firm plan built for consultants who need to white-label multiple client workspaces under one bill.
- Can I import an existing Cascade plan?
- Yes. Export your plan to CSV or PDF and our AI importer scaffolds your goals, KPIs, and initiatives into a Strategy Hub workspace. Most plans import cleanly in under five minutes.
- What's the migration risk?
- Low. Run Strategy Hub in parallel on one client engagement for a quarter. If the QBR is smoother and the dashboard is current, migrate the rest. If not, you've lost nothing — there are no annual commitments.
