History[edit]
Assembla has been based in Needham, Massachusetts since 2003.[2] The company was officially formed in 2005, headed by Andy Singleton, creator of PowerSteering Software.[3] using a distributed agile process[clarification needed] to link employees from multiple locations.[4] Initially, Assembla offered free on-demand tools such as Trac and Subversion hosting.
Faced with huge demand, Assembla started expanding and improving their offerings and began charging for some of their products in October 2008.[5]
In 2012, Assembla partnered with Perforce to offer on-demand versions of Perforce’s Software Version Management that is integrated with team tools from Assembla.[6]
In 2013, Assembla released a Renzoku feature pack that includes Agile task and code management tools for teams looking to go beyond Scrum iterations and achieve a continuous release process.
Products[edit]
Assembla provides a core product, Assembla Workspaces, and add-on feature packs for users looking for enhanced functionality. Assembla Workspaces provide development teams with the essential tools for any project: task management, code repositories (Subversion, Git, and Perforce),[7] focused and real-time collaboration, and deployment tools.
Assembla Renzoku is designed for Agile teams and provides enhanced tools to achieve a continuous release process. These tools include a Kanban Board, agile project management tools like an Agile Planner, advanced reporting, and modern coding workflows for code contribution, review, and release.
Assembla Portfolio adds centralized user management, reporting, time tracking, branding and client management on top of either Workspaces or Renzoku products.[8]
The complete Assembla system is also available as a private local installation to run on your server behind your firewall; you can integrate it with your LDAP authentication, and manage it according to your company's security requirements.[9]
All products Project are free for open source and publicly visible community projects. Assembla Workspaces and Renzoku is also free for private projects of up to 3 users.[10]
