What are the recommended best practices for collaboration between tenants. In other words how do we enable seamless sharing, meetings, and chats between tenants while ensuring users can see messages / chats from other tenants etc. We have enabled B2B direct connect between our tenants for shared channels but this doesn't help with direct messaging between people in resource tenants, and users our are confused on how to contact other users between guest and external accounts in the directory. I do understand that there are notifications in the New Teams but for a busy IT pro like me with many automated messages in channels from things like Azure DevOps, the notifications don't mean much. There seems to be a need for better collaboration across tenants, not just within Teams.

Hey there McCranium (great name) - MTMA should cover this for you! Have you tried it out yet in the new Teams app? https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/try-the-new-microsoft-teams-2d4a0c96-fa52-43f8-a006-4bfbc62cf6c5 (MTMA).Yes, I'm currently using the MTMA in the New Teams (toggle is on) and have multiple accounts connected in multiple tenants and have configured my notification settings in Windows. The only thing I'm seeing is the notifications in the top right telling me that I have 99+ messages /chats/ in the other tenant, should there be more than this?
- Make sure you enable Notification in WIndows for the Teams Preview if it's not. You should get these notifications in windows where you can click them and they will open up the "Thread / Chat" from the other tenants in a pop up window so you don't have to switch tenant etc.
