Chat Udell explains why he uses the Assembla Support tool - “
We love the power and flexibility of the Assembla Support tool. With the API, we can create custom forms and front ends for the Support system and not even have to train users on how to use a ticketing system. This save us time and money and ultimately gives us better user input as well.” Chad Udell, Iona Group
