Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Castcade is a digital signage and narrowcasting CMS for organizations managing information screens across offices, retail, hospitality, healthcare, education and other environments. Its browser-based editor handles images, video, animations, text, web pages, documents, dashboards, social feeds and live data. Playlists, templates, screen layouts, grouping and multi-user permissions support both everyday communications and more structured deployments across multiple signage players and platforms.
The published plans show a paid structure billed annually. Start costs €15 per screen per month and includes the CMS, images, video, templates, per-screen or per-location scheduling, realtime publishing, and user roles and permissions. Pro costs €20 per screen per month and adds dashboards and monitoring, custom branded templates, live data integrations, advanced scheduling and triggers, and expanded support options. Plus+ is aimed at larger deployments, with multi-location and multi-brand support, Single Sign-On, advanced security, complex workflows, dedicated support and SLA options, and rollout support.
Castcade stands out for breadth and ecosystem fit. It connects with SharePoint, Power BI, Google Workspace, Google Analytics, Google Calendar, CRMs, reservation tools, databases, planning tools and news feeds, while API integrations, sensors, automation and custom modules extend its scope. Monitoring includes uptime reporting and offline-player email alerts, and the platform runs on web, Windows and Android. Organizations needing broad content support, varied integrations and centralized control should consider Castcade. Teams seeking a free plan or confirmed offline playback should look elsewhere.
