First thing to be aware of… this is not the default Edge browser installed on your windows machine. This will help us in keeping track of all the things happening in Teams for our own organization, but at the same time our client organizations.įirst thing we need to do, is start using the Microsoft Edge Chromium browser. With the solution, we will be able to run multiple Teams environments at the same time, using the power of the new Edge Chromium browser. With the few little tricks I describe below, you can run multiple Teams environments at the same time by using the new Edge Chromium browser and also customize it so you directly see which Teams environment you opened. As a solution, you might be running Teams in a browser window, which is a first step, but it is still hard to keep up with everything that is happening in Teams. If case you have single sign-on enabled, it can become even a bigger struggle to sign in with a different account than your organization one. We have a separate Microsoft account for every client, which requires signing out and signing in again. In other words, your account needs to be added as a guest account to the Active Directory in the other organization.įor a lot of us, working as a consultant for different clients, this is not our day-to-day practice. On the right top in Teams you can switch organizations, but that only works if you are signing in with the same username and password to another organization. The multi-tenant setup is not very user friendly yet. I do not think that it is a surprise for anybody that working with Microsoft Teams and different organizations is a big hassle.

But… we found a solution to make it more flexible! The challenge Today I had a call with two of my colleagues and had a brief talk about the challenges with working for multiple clients and multiple Teams organizations at the same time. We are also facing a bunch of challenges with that. But since we are all working from home and collaborating more and more in Teams. A different blog than you are used to see on my website.
