Ziik helps Evoke Agency collaborate smoothly across 1800 kilometers

About the company

Evoke Agency is a Norwegian interior design and decoration agency offering styling services for homes, offices, fashion shoots, and real estate. Founded by Henriette Amlie in 2012, the agency now counts 11 employees working across two offices and numerous on-location assignments throughout the country.

Challenges before Ziik?

At Evoke, the team is rarely in the same place at the same time. With offices separated by 1800 kilometers and projects constantly pulling designers in different directions, communication was a real challenge.

“We’re always out on location. That’s just the nature of our work,” explains Henriette Amlie. “We needed a way to stay in touch, no matter where we were.”

Requirements for a new solution

Evoke set out to find a smartphone-friendly platform that:

• Centralizes project information and communication
• Supports easy sharing of briefs, project updates, and completed work
• Is intuitive and quick to implement
• Works across all smartphone brands

Ziik quickly stood out. Not just for its features but for its personal customer support in Norwegian.  

“There are other platforms out there, but they’re often too big to offer any personal touch. Ziik offers direct support in Norwegian. That made a big difference to us – and it still does” says Henriette.

Results

Everything in one place:

• Lightning-fast onboarding. Ziik was ready to go from first log-in, with only minor personalization needed.  
• User-friendly interface. Every employee instinctively knew how to use it from the start.  
• Efficient project management. Projects are shared, briefed, and documented in Ziik. Everyone has access to what they need - anytime, anywhere.  
• Smart search functionality. Users can search by address or keywords, even without exact spelling.  
• Professional chat. Conversations stay searchable, and key insights can always be retrieved.  
• Better oversight. Read receipts ensure important updates don’t get missed.  

“We use everything in Ziik and we use it for everything. We couldn’t do without it!" exclaims Henriette Amlie.
