Feedback summary: 

Since the site launched, traffic has more than doubled. The team at tonik was excellent. Responsive, flexible, and team-oriented, they’re considered a valuable partner. They understood project goals and presented their partners with delightful and unexpected ideas.

A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

Sara Dornsife: Matter Made is a B2B marketing agency. We work with Seed and series A startups. I’m a partner doing branding, messaging, positioning, and content strategy.

Julie McKenney: I’m the head of marketing, operations and project management. I deal with schedules, budgets, timing, and creative design. I was the lead project manager when we worked with tonik.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with tonik?

SD: As a marketing and branding agency, we were neglecting our own brand. We decided we needed to put the time and energy into working on our own brand. They helped us rebrand ourselves.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

SD: We were building our branding guideline and brand elements. Their largest deliverable was the redesign of our website. We fully updated our website. It is the same content and layout, but we updated our messaging and branding. We were focused on creating consistency and uniformity across our brand.

We created some pretty clear guidelines and a tight brief. Then, we worked very closely with them, sometimes on a daily basis, to review what they were working on and provide feedback. They definitely felt like a partner for us.

JM: The other item was taking all of those elements and creating a deck template for us, as well as assets that we could use over and over again. In addition to our website, they created a 70-page deck template, brand guidelines, and brand pad.

What is the team composition?

JM: We had one primary designer and project manager. They also brought in a few other designers when needed and we had communication with the owner as well.

How did you come to work with tonik?

JM: We worked with tonik on a few of our clients’ projects, and we loved working with them and the quality of their work. When it came time to do our own brand, we went back to them.

SD: We knew someone who used them, so when we found them online, we recognized their name. That made us look more closely at them.

What is the status of this engagement?

JM: This project lasted from March–June 2020.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement? 

 SD: We’ve seen about a 250% increase in traffic to our site as we’ve started to promote our new site.

How did tonik perform from a project management standpoint?

JM: It was excellent. They’re great to work with and they respond quickly. They kept us on-scope but were flexible enough that we were able to achieve the goals we wanted to. They were on Slack with us.

SD: I felt like they were partners with us. They internalized this project and came to us with some delightful and unexpected ideas.

JM: Communication with them was very easy and streamlined. They were very flexible. Whenever we gave them feedback, they just ran with it. They were so easy to work with and they really did feel like they were part of our team. They still check-in and submitted our website for a couple of different awards. They’re a champion of ours, and they’re really great partners. I’m excited to work with them on our clients’ projects again in the future.

What did you find most impressive about them?

JM: I love the animation they did for us.

SD: I was going to say the same thing.

JM: The animation is on our website, but they also gave us the files we can use for other things. They also provided direction on how to hand the project off to our developer. It was amazing to watch two agencies collaborating. The direction was very clear, and the developer was able to build it very quickly.

Everything was fantastic, we’re already working with them for a client’s project.

Are there any areas they could improve?

JM: I don’t have any criticism.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

SD: If you have a deck to work on, you should call tonik. Be clear with what you’re looking for. They’re very creative people, but with direction, they were on board with us.

tonik's work helped cut the time spent on sending invoices by 75% and the project is in full effect. The team was very communicative and had a great workflow. They worked quickly and efficiently while still creating a beautiful design.

The client submitted this review online.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

TrueNorth gives truckers a single place to manage their business — like Gusto + CRM for truckers. I'm co-founder and CEO.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire tonik?

We hired Tonik because we needed a quick turnaround on a design for an internal project. At that point the team was just me and my cofounder (CTO).

What were your goals for this project?

Our goal was to decrease the time I spent manually invoicing our customers (we do that on our truckers' behalf, so we were invoicing ~$150k/mth at that point). We also needed a super quick turnaround (< 1wk).

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

They were recommended by an investor.

Describe the project in detail.

I mocked up what I generally wanted in Figma, then Tonik took over. The project requirements: - let user upload documents - associate certain documents with specific customer jobs - enter customer billing info (and edit) - view all jobs on one screen - create & send invoices from jobs screen - show truckers their history of jobs

What was the team composition?

Patryk the lead set us up with Karol, who was the sole designer on our project all the way through.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

We're currently using the product! We optimized for speed on Tonik's engagement, so we've already built some more features on top of it. But this product decreased the time I (and now, my team) spent sending invoices by 75%.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Effective. We're on the west coast, but never had a time-difference problem. The team is super communicative (we set up a shared slack channel).

What did you find most impressive about this company?

Their flexibility and willingness to adapt were impressive — our requirements weren't for beautiful design (although they can do that too), it was for speed. Most designers aren't willing to do that. We gave them less than one week to design a full product and they delivered.

Are there any areas for improvement?

The client submitted this review online.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I'm the UX designer and sometimes frontend developer at Northern.tech. We're a software company behind two products – Mender (IoT software updater) and CFEngine (configuration management software). Northern.tech is the company name – we are distributed round the world with headquarters in Oslo Norway.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire tonik?

We hired tonik to provide us with a new visual design for our company website. We also wanted a few key pages delivered as code, which we could use as a basis for developing the rest of the site ourselves.

What were your goals for this project?

The goal was to create a more modern, friendly, exciting look to our company website. We want to attract more people and a wider mix of people, and to demonstrate we are a people-first organisation. to We also had a requirement that the new look should compliment our recent redesign of one of our product websites, to give us some consistency between company and product branding.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We had worked with them successfully on a product website previously. In that case, we had searched online and come across a portfolio on Dribbble that had good examples of what we were looking for, so we got in touch. They are also based in Europe which was a requirement for us.

Describe the project in detail.

I had done some UX + content work up front, so we had page content and some page wireframes ready for tonik's designer to work with. We were mainly interested in the visual design of the page to create the look and feel of a fun, friendly, modern place to work. We had an introductory call where we discussed the goals and scope of the project, as well as a shared document describing the goals and scope in detail. The designs provided by tonik were shared on a tool called inVision which allowed us to comment and collaborate on the designs. When we were happy with all designs, the code was provided via Gitlab. We were in contact throughout the project using Slack, so I could ping their team if I had any questions or feedback and they could contact me for the same.

What was the team composition?

A project manager from tonik took the lead, and assigned us a designer. From then, most communication was with the designer but the project manager was always available too. After the design phase, the designer handed over to a developer who was then the natural point of contact.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

We haven't published our redesigned website yet at this moment, due to our own workload and lack of capacity. However having shared the new pages within my team, everyone is very happy with the new look and feel and are looking forward to going live!

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

It was easy to communicate, all members of the team were helpful. Taking the project over the holiday period meant there were some periods of inactivity from both sides, but that was expected. The designer took suggestions and incorporated them very well, showing thoughtfulness and her own ideas in the designs. Knowing the project manager was always available to be contacted is reassuring, however there was no need in this case as the workflow was smooth.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

The designer in particular was enthusiastic and fun to work with; she brought great designs and I felt she understood the brief and the goals very well. We were on a restricted budget and tonik respected that and made the project work well within our scope.

Are there any areas for improvement?

We were very happy with the results of the project. The only thing I would have done differently in hindsight is to ask more about how the code would be delivered. We could have communicated more about how the delivered code would be structured, in order to fit with our existing site setup. Perhaps a call with the developer would have helped (similar to the introductory call we had with the PM and designer).

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire tonik?

Our company hired Tonik to redesign our homepage & in-app experience as well as design our pitch deck for fundraising.

What were your goals for this project?

Our goals were to improve communication around our product, encourage signups and improve UX for our internal app.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

Tonik was recommended to us through a friend who had used them at his company.

Describe the project in detail.

We presented Tonik with a mood board of the sort of website designs we liked. We gave them the copy we wanted to make sure was included. We had some initial back and forths about what direction the hero would go which then informed the rest of the homepage & the style guide for the entire app going forward. Their designer continued to communicate with us and as important UX questions over Slack.

What was the team composition?

We were assigned 1 designer and 1 engineer - you can scale your team up or down & you are working directly with a project manager as well.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Our demo signups increased ~20% & we were very happy with the rebrand - we always get complimented on it.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

The designers we were assigned was an amazing communicator and experience designer. She was super talented and we enjoyed working with her very much. She made our complex product easy to use and understand.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

I was very impressed with how determined they are to complete a project. With other teams I have worked with in the past, they'll get blocked on something like "oh I'm designer, not an illustrator so I can't make any illustrations for this" and the project suffers... but not with Tonik - they're full-service design & can unblock themselves - they have an illustrator on staff.

The project was mainly about designing the UX of a web platform. Un a skype call we explained to them the business background. Then during the development phase we asked them to design a new psge of the platform. The design process is iteative.

Feedback summary: 

The greatest compliment to Tonik’s work is the ease of use in their work. The team has established an effective project management system and they deliver features in a few days. While they deliver their best work when they’re given clear and thorough guidelines, they always meet quality standards.

A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

My company is called Elucify. We build products to help people find leads to sell more effectively. I’m the CEO of the company.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Tonik?

Our team has very strong engineering and sales capabilities, but we were lacking a good freelance designer. We weren’t quite ready to hire someone full time, and we wanted to find someone who communicated effectively and could create designs that were at our standards. I think we have a pretty high design bar for what we like. We had talked to quite a few designers, and we found Tonik to be very good.

Before that, our site had been designed by one of the founders. It was not slick in any way and didn’t look that great. We knew that in order to take the product to the next level, we needed a designer to help us.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

The scope was the entire product, including the landing page, the actual product itself, mockups for new product lines we’re going to be releasing, and A/B tests that we’re doing with marketing. They just did everything you could possibly imagine.

One aspect of design is just making something look good, but I think the other aspect they do is to think about how to make it easier to use. They sometimes add or remove information to make a page more aesthetically pleasing. We would send them a mock, and they would put in their own design expertise. They made suggestions about adding logos and more images to make a page look better. They might give feedback that there’s too much text on a page. There’s some higher-level guidance when designing, in addition to just trying to make things look good.

I haven’t found research on user base or surveying customers to be a big issue. We try to be very communicative in terms of what our user base thinks about and cares about, and I think Tonik has been able to capture that pretty well.

I communicate with one point person, Patryk [Cobczak, Graphic Design Specialist]. I believe different designers in the firm work on the project, but we’re okay not knowing too much about that. We care that the designs look really good and we have someone we can communicate with very well. We’ve been very happy with whatever process they have underneath the hood. It’s been pretty effortless for us.

How did you come to work with Tonik?

We started a broader search, trying to find the right designer to work with, and I talked to a few people I knew. I looked at different services online, and we also put out feelers through different forums. We’re part of this one incubator which is fairly prestigious in Silicon Valley, and we looked there for referrals. Someone had referred Tonik because they had a good experience with them. That was the original introduction. We selected Tonik over other designers for a combination of reasons, including the speed at which they work and the quality of their designs. The price point is really friendly for a startup as well.

How much have you invested with Tonik?

We’ve spent between $8,000 and $12,000.

What is the status of this engagement?

The project began around May of 2016 and our relationship is ongoing. They’re actually delivering something to us tomorrow.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Could you share any evidence that would demonstrate the productivity, quality of work, or the impact of the engagement?

We’ve gotten feedback that our product is really simple and easy to use, and that’s huge for any software product. Being easy to use is incredibly difficult. People ask who our designers are because they really like what we have. It’s pretty common that we hear stuff like that.

How did Tonik perform from a project management standpoint?

They perform very well. The process usually starts with a scheduled Skype call, and then we check in every day or two, depending on the size of the project. Some things take three to five days to design, and others may take a day. The more frequently we give feedback, the higher fidelity is in terms of what we’re looking for. There is a time difference between us and Poland, so we tend to talk with them either early in the morning or late at night, and that works for us.

What did you find most impressive about Tonik?

I think it’s just the combination of speed, quality, and price. We’ve been very happy that we get all of these in our engagement with Tonik. We chose not to work with a lot of designers in the past because they didn’t hit our design bar, but that was very clearly not a problem with Tonik.

Are there any areas Tonik could improve?

Nothing really jumps out. We’re very happy with them.
