What do you like best about Assembla?

Honestly nothing, it was a half decent tool for managing dev work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Assembla?

Their customer service is very terrible. No customer empathy, don't have the authority to escalate to solve problems.

They have been messing with pricing plans so much that we need to add 5 users and they only would do so if we upgraded to a plan that was 20x the price per user than we were paying. After a long battle with customer support, they added a discount to make it somewhat affordable. But still a 2.5x increase in price. We were told this discount is only valid for one year and we will jump up to the 20x price. We decided to move to Jira and in the process of asking them to cancel a majority of our services and users, they did it wrong and keep charging us the old price. They would not issue a refund.

Don't bother with these people! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Assembla?

I can't really think of anything I really like about assembla. It is complicated to use, has the basic features that are needed, but the end result is difficult to read. The editor doesn't provide much help. Changes are displayed together with relevant information in a way that makes reading a simple task complicated. It takes a long time to get used to the format, and even then, it takes too long to get the information that is relevant from a ticket. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Assembla?

As I said before, it keeps track of every change, so sometimes the change management gets in the way of a simple flow. The display of the data is so that relevant and irrelevant information is displayed together, so it makes it really hard to follow. It is very limited when you want to use custom fields. Default values are ignored. Sometimes, randomly, views revert to the default view and saved views are lost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Assembla:

I would look at other options. Assembla has been sold and aquired several times in the last few years. Every time this happens, promises are made (and broken). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Assembla solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use Assembla to manage the development of an ERP software package. We use it to keep track of development tasks and to track issues submitted by clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
