It is a great project management tool which offers an exhaustive set of features. It is easy to understand and use and helps in client management, e.g. the client invitation system where the team members can review the tickets. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There are places where the software lacks in customizability. I couldn't customize the drop down menu for tickets, and similarly Assembla also has a fixed report system which is not much customizable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like Cardwall, Filters, use of @username, Console integration, configure email notifications (eg. digested). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Bugs like not able to assign ticket to people that nonetheless were participants in the project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I'm not a developer so I don't use some of the more advanced features but what I like about Assembla is the easy to use interface, an integrated Wiki and and their Cardwall functionality that lets you keep track of bugs more easily for project management. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We use both JIRA and Assembla and some key features missing in Assembla is the ability to integrate with HipChat so that you can reference discussions in tickets. Also missing are release versions with a list of tickets that are part of the release cycle. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The cardwall and milestones are easier to immediately set up than other tools. I like being able to invite clients into our team groups for reviewing tickets. And having it SAAS, I can be anywhere to login and work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The lack of cross project tools is painful. I am having to work with a friend to develop our own tools interacting with your APIs to determine hour allocation for projects, developers, qa, across all projects with a usage of hours determined as tickets complete. The generated reports are also not configurable which is also painful. We are having to run filtered CSV exports from the ticket views then run a report and use excel to mash them together for any breadth of insight, per week, per 15 projects. Let me tell you, that is painful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Assembla is a very, very robust project management software, replete with a number of features that reward those with a diligent work ethic. This is especially true for SCRUM-based projects or organizations.
If you are working on a large-scale or long term project, it would be hard to go wrong with Assembla given its vast feature set. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Assembla's UI can be a bit clunky and it is over-reliant on email notifications. There is a happy medium between Asana, Assembla, and Trello, but I feel like Assembla could benefit the most from an updated UI and UX. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
having everything on one place and having everything under control Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
this is a pro tool, not so easy to use, if you are not a every day user it's not so easy to find something Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Assembla is very simple and easy to use. The interface is laid out in a clear way and not very cluttered. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
When posting a bug with a file attached, there is a lot of lag and no indication that the bug is posting or the page is loading. I find myself clicking the button to submit the bug multiple times because I am unsure if the request went through.
Also, I don't feel like it is as easy to search for old bugs on Assembla as it is on some other similar bug tracking software like JIRA. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The ticketing feature was awesome. I liked the way it worked and looked. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Share code and content in Assembla was horrible. Even though I don't "really" like Github, I have a paid Github account. Everyone uses Github and it is cheap ($7/mo), while Assembla was three times as much and rising. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like the visual flexibility of Assembla. Whether you have teams that are strictly following Scrum/Agile processes or just want a better, more visual way to track their progress, Assembla makes it easy. The email alerts about ticket updates are so super helpful for me, personally, but I know co-workers here who like the fact that you can also turn those off ;) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Even though I said I like the visual flexibility of Assembla, I do wish there was a little bit more flexibility or ability to customize some of the drop downs when creating the set up for a ticket Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
