Use a Hardware solution. I use MultiTech RouteFinder VPN Routers.

What kind of router/firewall do you have at each location? They should be the same and able to support site-to-site VPNs. Also, depending on the equipment, you should be able to setup a client VPN to them. Also, keep in mind that a site-to-site VPN won’t work if both endpoints are getting their public IP via DHCP. I would upgrade both sites to a static IP with your ISP.

Both sites have will have their own server locally to manage the services

Also – would it be possible to also run a client-connect VPN along with the site-to-site connection, so remote users can connect in to their local server from home?

Any help is much appreciated!
