I want to use multiple Teams accounts at the same time
LOG INTO MULTIPLE ACCOUNTS
We need the ability to sign in with multiple accounts. Many of us have several O365 accounts for various reasons (consulting, etc), and we’d need to be able to access teams directly. This is not a federation or B2B scenario, but a case where new O365 credentials have been created in another tenant for us. The app today only allows a single signed-in account at a time and that’s a blocker.

The engineering team is continuing to work on adding support for multiple accounts on desktop clients. We will first launch support for 1 work/school account and 1 personal account so users can enjoy Teams for work and personal side-by-side. Windows and MacOS. Support for multiple work accounts is still being worked on and will come at a later date.
You can track status via the roadmap here: https://www.microsoft.com/microsoft-365/roadmap?searchterms=68845.
Thanks!

We provide company identities to consultants working on projects in Teams. They use managed devices which are restricted or preconfigured for their company. This makes use of the teams client for immersive collaboration impossible. The use of "guest" account circumvents most of our policies and does not provide all functionality. Incognito in Chrome is the only route they have now. We need a solution for this.

I use the same work email and have numerous clients that invite me to their team space. I can't access them all at the same time or even toggle between them for that matter. I found a work around where one client's space is on my desktop version and another is on my web version but through a different Chrome profile. Can't seem to figure it out for more than two clients. Terrible. This has to be fixed asap.

I was not really aware, that this is such a big issue for MS teams. It's 2021 and there is still an issue with support Multi-User-Accounts?
Whilst Slack made it more and more easy to collaborate (for example Slack connect, multiple slack spaces etc), Teams is still limited to just ONE account.
In consequence, I use MS Teams only with clients who really wants to continue working with it. Else, we stick to Slack...
We might re-consider, if switching accounts is working seamless.

Hi, my company starts trial period and some customers invited us to join their organization.
Coworkers are connected all the day to our organization but we cannot receive notification on our customer solicitations.This is a basic feature of any chat system. Will a solution be available before July 2021 ?
Else my organization will install Slack :( -

Hi,
It is definitelly necessary to work in multiple organizations without constant switching from one to another to follow workflow. -

Please make it possible to use Teams with more than 1 work account asap. For those of us working for multiple organizations the current situation makes it impossible to follow both of our work in a timely manner.

Dear Sir or Madam, the cross-organisational messages when travelling in different teams now neither works with the little red one nor consistently via email information. Especially when you are on the road in several teams (e.g. from external people), this function is indispensable.
By switching off these useful functions, you produce a completely dissatisfied company and lose acceptance! -

I assume this will never be implemented, because performance is already so bad that this feature would finally kill Teams.

Is this thread dead because it’s marked as “working on it” but the work only allowed one work and one personal account?

Rethink this whole Identity mess (switching takes minutes, fails often, etc)
Maybe one over arching identity with all tenant identities below can being back the Sweet single sign on for all forced to work in multiple tenants. -

multiple office 365 accounts to be specific.
e.g. I want to be active on my company teams as well as my client organization Teams.
