Using Teams with multiple organizations
Microsoft: Why did u mark this thread as SOLVED when it's NOT!!!
This thread is far away to be solved as all solution proposed by you DON'T WORK AT ALL.
- MacOS Teams doesn't support multiple tenants logged at the same time which is pathetic!
- Mobile Teams (at least the iOS one), even when it supports being logged in with multiple tenants:
- it doesn't notify when someone is calling you from a different tenant
- doesn't notify new messages from tenants different than the one is marked as active
- now new issue was reported by another user
so, why are you marking this issue as Solved without asking the owner to do that??
Sorry, but in MHO this is a fault of respect.... the solution marked as "Best Answer " is not a solution, it's a very very very bad workaround.
So please, go ahead and put my thread on unsolved again, cause I didn't mark this solution as solved CAUSE IT'S NOT !!!

adam deltinger , thanks for your answer but I want to mention 2 things:
- YOU CANNOT MARK A THREAD WHICH DOESN'T BELONG TO YOU AS SOLVED WITHOUT ASKING THE OWNER. I've been in the IT industry for more than 20 years and this is the first time that something like this happens to me. Every time I wrote in a forum and I got a solution, moderators asked me to marked as SOLVED, they don't do it by themselves... That was my big complaint here!!!
- as Issac Jhonson mentioned before, this is something that a direct competitor like Slack does in a very easy way... why you can't do that? and if it'snot ready, I can understand it, but mark my thread to SOLVED without my approval it's wrong.
We are in a test period cause we are evaluating tools to move our company there. That's why we have only 6 users in our tenant, but the problem the board members has found is that they cannot have multiple companies in the desktop (PLEASE, DO NOT ASK ME AGAIN TO USE THE WEB CAUSE IN THIS CASE, I WILL PREFER GSUIT OVER MS BY FAR as Google's web products are much better and stable than MS web products and it completely reasonable... Google it's been doing this for its entire life), and in iOS and Android Teams they cannot receive calls from other tenants when but the one is currently active.
So, please, I would like that you unmark this thread as solved cause I'm not giving my approval to be marked as SOLVED. Please.
PD: I haven't done it my self, cause I haven't found where to do it. It seems that it's something that only admins can do...

Hi freddy311082 We didn't mark the solution as solved - we marked it as best response, but there have been so many that tried to offer you solutions since then. We have now unmarked the best response and future users can take the time to review all responses in the thread to find what they consider is the best response.

ThereseSolimeno I hate to say it, but whether or not you unmarked the best response, it still shows up with a Green Tick (with Solved! shown in the popover), and a giant black banner across the response reading "best response confirmed by ThereseSolimeno".
I've been following this thread for more than a year, and it's quite disappointing to see no visible progress on the problem, with the majority of is still needing to either use mobile devices, or having to keep numerous different browsers open at the same time to stay connected to multiple different Teams in different Organisations.

And where would i find that?
It's not in Teams Free... I can say this is a real issue in dealing with contract vendors who have their own teams org's. I would consider it a real serious issue (considering Slack does this quite well)
- Aug 03, 2020It’s a big one here:

And as you can see they are currently working on it
