Hey everyone, Jacob here. After spending the past few weeks diving deep into Trimble Business Center 2025.10, I'm excited to share what this release means for your daily workflows. As someone who fields your technical questions every day, I know exactly which features will make your life easier....
The Standout Features That Matter Most
- Connected Workspace Gets a Complete Makeover Remember those frustrating multi-step workflows when sharing data between TBC and Trimble Access? That's history. The redesigned Connected Workspace interface makes data exchange feel effortless. I've watched clients cut their upload times in half just by using the streamlined interface.
- Full Geometry Roundtrip Support This is huge, folks. You can now exchange lines, polylines, and polygons—complete with attributes—between TBC and Trimble Access via JXL files. Your field crews can edit GIS features on-site, and everything syncs back perfectly. No more data loss, no more headaches.
- Point Cloud Classification on Steroids The enhanced classification now accurately identifies cantilever signs, sign bridges, and dual-post signs. Plus, it runs 50% faster for sign extraction. For our DOT clients processing miles of corridor data, this translates to days saved on every project.
- Capture Outline: From Scan to Plan in Seconds Need floor plans from your scan data? The new Capture Outline command automatically connects measured points or point cloud data to create room geometry. I've seen surveyors create complete building layouts in minutes instead of hours.
The Real Impact
Last week, I helped a client who was struggling with pavement inspection workflows. With the new PCI vector export feature, they now send inspection results directly to their GIS team—no more manual data entry. The ability to assign treatment types and export only the segments needing repair has transformed their municipal maintenance program.
Pro Tips from the Support Desk
- Before upgrading: Ensure your warranty or subscription is current through July 1, 2025

The Bottom Line
TBC 2025.10 isn't just an incremental update—it's a workflow revolution. From the moment you import field data to the final deliverable, every step is faster and more intuitive.
