It's easy to install btsync for a single user, especially if you don't care much about security (see https://www.readynas.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=71152, for example). But a proper addon would give each user his own sync subdirectory and allow him to configure it without interfering with any other user's sync directory, and would also give the ReadyNAS admin some basic user-management tools (e.g., to create new sync subdirectories for newly-added users).
There are some multi-user scripts on the web that might be a good starting point:
