Frequently asked questions
The community plan has limits for storage and does not support
offline editing for PostGIS layers. You can still have unlimited
private and public projects.
#qfieldcloud #plans
#qfieldcloud #plans
There is no limit to the number of collaborators for public
projects.
#qfieldcloud collaboration #plans
#qfieldcloud collaboration #plans
This is exactly how QFieldCloud works as long as your project is
public. If you need the same functionality in a private project,
you must create an organisation.
#qfieldcloud collaboration #plans
#qfieldcloud collaboration #plans
Correct, an organisation always includes at least two members;
the base price includes those. Further members will be billed
only if they actively use QFieldCloud in a given month.
#qfieldcloud #plans
#qfieldcloud #plans
You can work with live PostGIS layers with any plan. If you need
offline editing, you would need the project to be owned by
either a Pro or Organization account.

Organizations have 1 GB of storage included. Any additional
storage has to be prepaid and has a fixed price of 5€ per month
per GB. If you need 10GB in total, you have 1GB from your plan
and 9GB of additional storage. The additional storage will cost
you 45€.
#qfieldcloud billing #plans

The storage is the sum of the size of all files in all projects
that are owned by the account.

There is no restriction on file size. However, we recommend
keeping files of sensible size (e.g. up to 1 GB), as bigger
files might be hard to download with an unstable internet
connection.

No, this is not planned. It's, however, possible to collaborate
freely on public projects. It is also possible to create a trial

QFieldCloud is open-source, and you can run it on your
infrastructure. Check out the
QFieldCloud GitHub repository] for instructions on how to get it running. If you need
premium support and
app.qfield.cloud
running on your infrastructure, we can add you to our interested
customers' list, and after releasing QFieldCloud, we can come
back to you with all the required information.

Yes, any registered user can download a public project and open
it in QGIS. Make sure not to save your database credentials in
your QGIS project when using a community account. Per default,
when someone downloads another person's public project without
being added by the person as a collaborator, he or she will only
have a Reader's permission. You can, however, add
collaborators explicitly to your public project and select other
roles for them.

Yes, a collaborator first needs to be added as a member of the
organization. Members can then be added to specific projects.

You need a Pro account to collaborate with another Pro user.
Members of an organization can collaborate with all other

No, they are not. QFieldCloud is a platform that allows data
synchronisation for seamless fieldwork. QGIS cloud is a
publishing platform by a different company.

Any account type works. As soon as you get added to an
organization as a member, the organization will be
billed for your organization account. All organisation members
are regular users, regardless of their permissions (reader,
editor, administrator, etc.). For your account, you can decide
whether to use the free community plan or upgrade to Pro.
Upgrading to Pro gives advantages to projects owned by yourself.

We don't have a single page for details on features in future
versions at the moment. QField has an integrated changelog
screen when a new QField version is released. We will consider
communicating on a roadmap. In the meantime, you can follow the
development of QField and QFieldCloud on GitHub.

Yes, working offline is possible. You can
configure your PostGIS layers as "offline editing"
and synchronise your project once you are connected to the
internet again.

Yes, they are two different applications. QField is a mobile app
for field data collection; QFieldCloud is a platform that allows
data synchronisation for seamless fieldwork. If required, QField
can be used without QFieldCloud.

QFieldCloud officially supports PostGIS and GeoPackage data
source formats. While QFieldCloud will most likely work with
your other data format, they are not officially supported.

Unfortunately, not yet for GeoPackage layers. You have to wait
for fieldwork to finish before synchronizing and editing on
QGIS, or you have to merge GeoPackages from QFieldCloud and your
QGIS file manually. We are working for a solution for this
inconvenience.
