Hi Will,
Egnyte Power Users are there for permission and authentication control. This allows unique security and privacy for each user.
If this isn't crucial for your business, you can technically let multiple employees share one Power User login information, in which you won't have to purchase new user licenses. The downside to this approach is that groups of employees will be able to see, access, edit all the same files belonging to their shared folder (since it's the same user login).
Also to clear things up, making employees Power Users does not mean you're giving them admin rights. You, as the admin, can control all permission access rights of any folders. Power Users just enables employees to access their files from the ReadyNAS, web browser, mapped drive, FTP, desktop sync and mobile apps.
