I have a new installation that will require 10 remote users,5 at 2 different locations. Is there a limit to how many remote users you can have?

For free, you can have 4 on each IP500. Past that, you can license the users with power user, which includes remote worker.

Or set up site to site VPNs, the 2 sites will have different subnets from each other and from the main site, the phones will connect without any special licensing

Is that over and above the seat license? How hard is setting up a VPN between sites?

If J sereies phones, you would need to set up either an SBC or SIP remote worker functionality. If 96xx sets, you can use VPN for them...
SBC is the safest way, but there is a cost.

Again, site to site VPN so that each site is a separate subnet, the phones are now routable without going through the open Internet. No SBC, no remote worker, no extra licensing.

The problem with setting up the VPN is their computer guy is pissed that they did not chose the phone system that he was hawking, so I'm not looking for a lot of help with modifying his network.
