What’s new in 2025?

A lot!

New features for all subscriptions

• More storage with the same expense - 3 times more storage, same monthly invoice.
• Support virtual layers in community plan - more functionality, more flexibility.

New products

• Dedicated installations - your organization, our dedicated server, our expertise, just for you.
• On-premises operations agreement - your organization, your server, our expertise, just for you.

File storage

We implemented a new file storage backend, that was yet to be the largest single change of QFieldCloud ever.

• Speed - make file handling equally fast for both small and large projects.
• Resticted project files - limit who can change sensitive files.
• Resumable large file downloads - make downloading on unstable networks much more effient.
• Allow uploads of files up to 20GB - because spatial data is heavy.

Projects

• Shared datasets - upload your basemaps once, use it within all projects in your organization.
• Attachments on demand - don’t overload your device with sometimes unnecessary attachments.

Secrets

• Add organization level secrets - having to declare the same secrets for each individual project was tiring.
• Assign secrets to individual users - best practices matter!

Single sign-on (SSO) support

• Sign in with Google on app.qfield.cloud - very, very soon.
• Dedicated/on-premises instances are ready to support your OIDC provider.

On-premises and custom apps on top of QFieldCloud

• Multiple storage backends - do not limit yourself to just Object Storage (S3).
• Store attachments on separate storage - store attachments directly on your WebDAV server.
• Adding custom jobs - write your own workflow for your own needs on top of QFieldCloud.
• Translatable user interface - QFieldCloud speaks your language.
