Additional capabilities cover job scheduling, CrushSync file replication, CrushTunnel bandwidth acceleration, DMZ deployment, SOCKS5 proxying, ad-hoc sharing links, thumbnail previews, custom web forms, event-driven automation through CrushTask, and real-time monitoring dashboards. iOS and Android client apps are available.

Licensing is offered in normal and enterprise editions, with normal licenses covering small business and professional tiers and an unlimited-install site license. Enterprise licenses add features such as DMZ front-end functionality, high availability, job scheduling, CrushSync, CrushFTPDrive, RADIUS and SAML authentication, and support tiers with maintenance renewals. Concurrent user increase and upgrade licenses are also available.
