Horrible Customer Service for Billing - Beware **Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Tim C. | president, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 01, 2026 **What do you like best about Assembla?** The service itself was fine. No issues with that. **What do you dislike about Assembla?** I had a game app which we decided to shut down. I signed up for an annual payment plan last year. I tried to go on the website in mid-January on a weekend to take my card off of automatic renewal, knowing that it was set to renew in March. When I tried to get on there 2FA haqd been set up, and I could not access the site, and figured they would send me a renewal notice, like every other company normally does. However, I just got billed $140.40. We no longer are using the service and I asked if I could get a refund, and offered to let them keep the normal one month fee. But they said that they would not do a refund because I did not cancel the service 30 DAYS in advance. Completely unfair and most people would not think to cancel 30 days ahead of time. DEFINITELY BEWARE OF THIS COMPANY **What problems is Assembla solving and how is that benefiting you?** none ### 2. Customer Care is impotent - overcharging - won't terminate service - won't remove my credit card **Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 28, 2025 **What do you like best about Assembla?** Provides hosted subversion and ticket system **What do you dislike about Assembla?** 1. Customer service is useless. Canned response, no one actually hears the problem or addresses it. 2. Refuses to remove credit card from their system despite numerous requests. 3. Overcharging - cost per month is $47.50, but they charge $54.62 each month, but no taxes displayed on invoice, just a money grab? **What problems is Assembla solving and how is that benefiting you?** version control ### 3. Very good project management and cloud services for IT **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** saravan b. | Team manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 02, 2022 **What do you like best about Assembla?** The Interface is really handy to understand and good for project managemenst **What do you dislike about Assembla?** Pricing is really bad compared to other platforms **What problems is Assembla solving and how is that benefiting you?** Easy project management and integrations ### 4. Everyday tool done right! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** January 04, 2022 **What do you like best about Assembla?** Assembla allows our team to organize and execute with full visibility of what everyone is doing. Collaboration is certainly its core feature. We've tried other solutions, but its features stand out. **What do you dislike about Assembla?** The user signup has been difficult at times. Sometimes the invites are not received, and resending them is difficult. This is something I would urge them to look into. **What problems is Assembla solving and how is that benefiting you?** We are managing a high complexity development operation, and Assembla allows us to organize, execute and meet our client's needs at all times. Integrating code repositories along with tasks into a single tool is an asset. ### 5. A powerful team collaboration platform for software development **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Danny V. | Software Engineer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** February 22, 2020 **What do you like best about Assembla?** Assembla is an excellent platform to maintain version control of each project that we carry out in the organization. What I like most is that it is very simple to use, enough for anyone to import or export projects to the repositories. I really like to have a ticket section to report bugs to my colleagues. Assembla includes SecureGit, which has high security standards. **What do you dislike about Assembla?** The documentation to configure Assembla can be exhaustive. I believe that other alternatives such as videos should be available for users to be guided in the configuration. **Recommendations to others considering Assembla:** I recommend using Assembla, especially because in addition to being able to handle different repositories at the same time, this tool allows you to report bugs. **What problems is Assembla solving and how is that benefiting you?** In my case, I use Assembla to have version control of the projects that are being developed in the organization. In addition, it has also been helpful to have a support center so that we can report errors in the apps to other colleagues. ### 6. Great project management tool **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Michael M. | Production Team Lead, Information Technology and Services, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 30, 2019 **What do you like best about Assembla?** I appreciate the volume of information we can track in Assembla - we can add any kind of metadata we need to track and sort our projects. We can track every date a project has, should, or didn't pass, every person who has touched a project, all of the project data, and more. The visualization tools are also very powerful, even if the number of fields we need to see can cause Assembla to get a bit overloaded. **What do you dislike about Assembla?** I wish organization was a little more powerful, and search in particular is disappointing. When you have hundreds of projects and tickets open at once, finding what you need can be a huge hassle. It would also be nice to have more quick ways to organize your views - right now everything for you and your team is cluttered under a single list. **Recommendations to others considering Assembla:** Although Assembla is focused towards programming and code repositories, its project management tools are stellar. If you have a dozen projects or a hundred, and if these projects require a million steps or ten, Assembla allows you to track the information you need. I can fully recommend you get this system. **What problems is Assembla solving and how is that benefiting you?** We needed a project management tool that offered good visualization options comparable to a physical ticket board, but was easily accessible by remote team members. ### 7. Good tool for project management **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** saad h. | Associate Software Engineer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 29, 2019 **What do you like best about Assembla?** I like how you get all your tasks and your code repo in one place. Also, Assemble makes it easy to communicate with your team members with in-built mentions and there ability to reference other tasks or code commits. I also really like preview option before you post your comment.Simple to use and a great collaborative tool for our global employees.The advantage of it being integrated with SVN and GIT makes it really easy to manage our repo. Organization of ticket view, ability to share information with colleagues, and ease of use.Easily able to log issues and track them through to completion with our technical team.It used to be a convenient SCRUM/Kanban - style project management tool with seamless SVN integration. Great views of tracking stories through lanes, as well as the ability to track epics and sprints for our software development process. Software tracks each individual users contributions, and also has a built in wiki to document the project. **What do you dislike about Assembla?** I don't like that they've changed their pricing model. We needed to add 1 additional team member, and we needed to switch to much more expensive model.I initially struggled with how to add custom fields and add to the dropdown values, but I was able to figure that out after spending some time looking. **Recommendations to others considering Assembla:** Our company has a large number of ongoing projects with even more milestones in progress at the same time split by teams. Assembla has been helping us have a smooth and uniform process. **What problems is Assembla solving and how is that benefiting you?** A great software to use for source control on your projects. ### 8. Very easy to understand the interface and maintain the tickets. **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Chandrajit D. | Mr., Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 28, 2019 **What do you like best about Assembla?** All the features Assembla has is best but the ticket managing system are great, also the burn down chart is a great tool to visually inspect your tickets and we can see the worked and remaining hours clearly also the tag system is also great also it is easy to filter between tickets by status, priority and all the things that is needed also the wiki system of Assembla is a great tool to keep any project related or any other documents that helps other user to find what information they need. **What do you dislike about Assembla?** The UI interface for the cardwall is not that great, it is stretching the content to the very end of the screen that makes the horizontal scrollbar visible also it just a suggestion in the cardwall if the background color will change for tickets based the priority of the tickets and if we could've choose what color to give for the priority it would've be a great plus point. **Recommendations to others considering Assembla:** I will go for Assembla, it's a great tool to manage your tickets. **What problems is Assembla solving and how is that benefiting you?** Mainly the burndown chart is great toll which helps to track and monitor how many hours spend/remaining for any specific ticket for the milestone also it helps the user to easily log the effort (Total spent and remaining) hours on the tickets and it helps the supervisor to track the activity and history of the ticket that helps to mange the project better. ### 9. Simple, focused software management **Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Daniel P. | Lead Developer, Computer Software, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 21, 2019 **What do you like best about Assembla?** The tight integration between tickets and source code improves developer quality of life. It helps developers trace each line of code to a ticket that helps provide context for why the code is the way it is. Plus, it makes it easier for developers to keep their own tickets up-to-date. Additionally, the code review tools promote better team collaboration and better code. The integration with Jenkins helps our team automate builds and deployments. **What do you dislike about Assembla?** While the ticketing tool has improved significantly over the last year with the release of the sprint planning tools, the project management tools still lack enough reporting and functionality to fully serve a project of significant complexity. Planning releases, running reports of estimates vs actual time spent, and comparing that across multiple projects is virtually impossible except for the most clever of user. Also, the source code repos lack integrations with other software services. Using tools like Microsoft App Center or Tugboat always seem to offer connections to Bitbucket and Github...but my code is in Assembla. **Recommendations to others considering Assembla:** N/a **What problems is Assembla solving and how is that benefiting you?** Assembla helps my team write better software by providing us a simple workflow where the team can clearly see the tasks assigned to them, make the required changes to the code, and submit the code for merge request to collaborate through code review. ### 10. Awesome tool for Source Code Management. **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Pankaj T. | Techncal Lead, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** July 30, 2019 **What do you like best about Assembla?** Assembla is a great web based tool for code management, Repository Management. You can handle multiple Project at same time as SPACES. All the ticket which are followed by you is shown in Home Page. From followed ticket you can easily check the any activity is done on ticket. If any other user mention you in a comment a notification come and you can also see the notification on dashboard. You can easily track all the events which was done on ticket through Stream section and also check all the tickets using ticket section also. **What do you dislike about Assembla?** If you add additional worked hours by mistake then you can't change it to less hour. For ex you worked 20 hour and by mistake you filled 40 hour instead of 20 hour then worked hour value set 40 . Now you are unable to change it as 20 hour. There is not any way to correct the worked hour value. **Recommendations to others considering Assembla:** It is an awesome tool for Code Management and ManageTicketing. **What problems is Assembla solving and how is that benefiting you?** Easy to maintain tickets, Either it was assigned to you or followed by you. If any activity happened on any ticket you get the notification on email also. Assembla is a great tool to maintain you project. Great structure for ticketing, we can create Parent Ticket, Related Ticket , it really helps to maintain Proper ticketing for a Project. ## Assembla Discussions - [How can I delete file I previously updated on ticket comment ?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/15482-how-can-i-delete-file-i-previously-updated-on-ticket-comment) - 1 comment, 1 upvote - [Can I deploy Assembla on my own AWS, Azure, GCP, or on-premise server?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/can-i-deploy-assembla-on-my-own-aws-azure-gcp-or-on-premise-network) - 1 comment, 1 upvote - [View Assembla pricing details and edition comparison](https://www.g2.com/products/assembla/reviews/assembla-review-3060485?section=pricing&secure%5Bexpires_at%5D=2026-05-16+06%3A35%3A36+-0500&secure%5Bsession_id%5D=bdd31f49-da3b-4f65-8b14-69f012345c54&secure%5Btoken%5D=28f6e01de8cc4becdd803e9b1a32d5db35084d2d267d878c355a4fcb077bbedc&format=llm_user) ## Assembla Features **Bug Reporting** - User Reports & Feedback - Tester Reports & Feedback - Team Reports & Comments **Documentation** - Feedback - Prioritization - Remediation Suggestions **Bug Monitoring** - Analytics - Bug History - Data Retention **Security** - False Positives - Custom Compliance - Agility **Agentic AI - Bug Tracking** - Adaptive Learning - Natural Language Interaction - Proactive Assistance ## Top Assembla Alternatives - [GitHub](https://www.g2.com/products/github/reviews) - 4.7/5.0 (2,279 reviews) - [GitLab](https://www.g2.com/products/gitlab/reviews) - 4.5/5.0 (874 reviews) - [Bitbucket](https://www.g2.com/products/bitbucket/reviews) - 4.4/5.0 (979 reviews)
