"Clean, Attractive UX That’s Easy to Use"

It’s very easy to use, and the new UX feels clean and attractive. I can switch between dark and light mode, which is especially helpful when I’m collaborating with others. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Assembla?

For my use cases, I have what I need. I would've loved cooler graphics, but the new UX is already very nice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Customer Care is impotent - overcharging - won't terminate service - won't remove my credit card"
0/5
What do you like best about Assembla?

Provides hosted subversion and ticket system Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Everyday tool done right!"
5/5
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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A powerful team collaboration platform for software development"
4.5/5
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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great project management tool"
4.5/5
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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good tool for project management"
4.5/5
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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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.

"Very easy to understand the interface and maintain the tickets."
5/5
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.
