Pricing at a glance

Assembla’s public pricing is split across a few product lines, so buyers should read the plans by workflow rather than assuming one universal rate. For Git and SVN hosting, Assembla Cloud starts with the Starter plan at $11.50 per user per month and the Growth plan at $17.50 per user per month, while the Custom Cloud tier is quote-based for organizations that need dedicated infrastructure, compliance-ready setup, or self-hosted options. A separate PM Plan starts at $5.99 per user per month for teams that only need project management. For Perforce users, Assembla publishes a SaaS option at $56.50 per user per month and a dedicated Enterprise Cloud option that requires a quote. Across the public pages, the recurring theme is per-user, per-month pricing with annual billing options, a 14-day free trial, and add-ons for extra storage or premium support. Buyers who expect usage growth should pay attention to the storage line items, because Assembla openly prices extra storage at a per-GB monthly rate rather than burying it in a custom quote.

◇ Pricing model

Per-user subscription pricing for standard cloud plans, with separate plan families for Git/SVN hosting, project management-only, and Perforce hosting; some higher-tier offerings are quote-only.

↻ Billing notes

Publicly listed cloud plans support monthly and annual billing, with annual pricing shown as a 10% discount on the main Assembla Cloud pricing page. The Assembla Cloud pages offer a 14-day free trial with no credit card required and state that teams can cancel anytime. Starter is recommended for up to 5 users, Growth for up to 25 users, and Perforce Cloud (SaaS) is designed for teams up to 50 users. Custom Cloud and Perforce Enterprise Cloud are quote-based and use a 12-month term. The PM Plan also offers a 14-day free trial with no credit card required and says there are no seat tiers.

Add-ons and extras

Premium Support

Not publicly disclosed

A 24x5 support upgrade available on Assembla Cloud plans and offered as an add-on on the Perforce Cloud (SaaS) plan. The pricing page says it is available as a paid add-on, while the Perforce page says it is included in Perforce Enterprise Cloud.

Additional Storage

$0.30 per GB per month

Storage can be expanded as repositories, binary files, Git LFS usage, or depots grow. The pricing pages describe this as a paid add-on for Assembla Cloud and Perforce Cloud.

Custom Storage

Not publicly disclosed

Available on Custom Cloud and Enterprise-style Perforce offerings for organizations that need storage beyond the included allocation. The specific rate is not publicly listed.

Perforce Helix Core Licenses

Not publicly disclosed

For Perforce Enterprise Cloud, Assembla says licensing can be included in the plan or teams can use an existing Perforce license. The price of bringing an existing license or any separate licensing arrangement is not publicly disclosed on the page.

Hidden and indirect costs

Worth budgeting for
⚠  Assembla’s pricing pages explicitly call out some extras that can affect total cost, especially storage growth and support upgrades. Additional storage is sold separately at $0.30 per GB per month, and premium support is an add-on on several plans rather than a default inclusion. For the Perforce Enterprise Cloud, the page also notes that customers may use an existing Perforce license or have licensing included, which means total cost can vary based on licensing structure and quote scope.
⚠  The quote-only tiers can hide implementation-specific cost drivers because the final price depends on term length, infrastructure requirements, deployment architecture, and storage needs. Assembla also notes that some plans are designed for advanced requirements such as compliance-ready setup, dedicated infrastructure, single-tenant hosting, and custom backups, all of which can change the commercial package even when the base price is not publicly listed.

Pricing FAQ

Yes. The public pricing pages say every Assembla Cloud plan includes a 14-day free trial with no credit card required. The PM Plan also includes a 14-day free trial with no credit card required, and the Perforce Cloud SaaS plan does as well. If you are evaluating the platform, you can test the relevant plan before committing to a paid subscription.

No permanent free plan is publicly listed on the pricing pages. The Assembla Cloud FAQ explicitly says Assembla does not offer a permanent free plan, but it does offer a 14-day free trial with no credit card required. The PM Plan page likewise positions the product as a paid subscription with a trial rather than a free forever tier.

Yes. The pricing page says teams can upgrade from Starter to Growth at any time, and the PM Plan page says teams can upgrade to the Growth plan at any time without migrating data. That means buyers can start with repository hosting or project management and expand later as their workflow changes.

Storage is one of the clearest add-on cost drivers on the public pages. Assembla lists additional storage at $0.30 per GB per month, and the Perforce page uses the same rate for both SaaS and enterprise offerings. Teams with large binary files, Git LFS usage, or growing depots should expect storage expansion to increase the monthly bill.
