Have a look at UltraVNC. I have it running on several Win 7 machines and the install was 'uneventful'. VNC is a protocol, all the servers and clients use the same protocol and can be mixed invisibly. They may each have additions, but it's never much. TightVNC doesn't require you to set a password, and you can tell it to only accept people from the same network ie lan.
I have tried every combination and now for years have been very happy with TightVNC as the server on a Windows 8. Funny thing about Windows, it disables RDP for accounts without a password, and I have yet to get it to work without it logging off or locking out the current user, I have seen it done before without logging the user out, but that was only on a computer part of a domain group set to netlogon only.

Both protocols provide access to remote desktops for quick and easy remote working and troubleshooting. The main difference is that RDP is a virtual session and VNC captures the physical display; you see exactly what the remote user sees.
If you are looking to incorporate broad implementation of a remote desktop tool, it is likely that the software you choose will need to function across an array of devices and operating systems, including mobile phones, PCs, Linux and iOS devices, Raspberry Pi boards and Mac computers. And if remote IT support is required, flexibility and compatibility are at the top of the list when choosing a solution.
With so many people working from home at the moment with vastly different devices and the need for cross-platform support, VNC seems to be the clear choice.

Even worked across the VPN to the two remote sites. If your clients have two monitors, be sure to choose a VNC version that can handle that situation.
UltraVNC provides dual monitor support for clients with two monitors. It also allows for AD integration so that you can limit who can authenticate when connecting. Not sure if RealVNC has this capability. My personal preference is TightVNC. It just seems to work flawlessly.
