Working with multiple Microsoft accounts (multiple 365 accounts)

it can be tiresome and confusing working with multiple microsoft accounts. there are countless scneario's where you will need to be logged in to more than one microsoft account at the same time, now the common way of doing this would be to use different browsers, IE and FIrefox or chrome for example, thats one way of doing it but that means you can only have a certain number of accounts, or using in private or incognito browsing but again, they all have limited usage and with the in private you will loose your credentials and history when you cose the window

Scenario's:
Using personal Live account and need to sign in with company account
Using company account and trying to sign in to company dev account
Using client account and trying to sign in with company account
the scenario's go on and on,

Enter Chrome Users....

Chrome has taken the title of best browser from firefox a few years back, it is quick, light and it works, for most web developers it is the browser of choice and thelist of reasons for that are as long as your arm.

chrome has another feature that most people arent aware of or using, this feature is perfect for using multiple accounts

Chrome Users

Setting up Users: he chrome site has all the information you need on setting up users here: https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/2364824?hl=en-GB

On my environment i need to mange four separate Microsoft accounts, for this I have created four users, my first user being my main intranet account:

on that account I have saved passwords and settings for that user, if I click to the "Py" account, a new window opens with that user icon, with that i am able to use all my saved settings and passwords for my "Py" 365 account

You can see when you have multiple windows up, the icon user indicator allows you to easily see which window is which, this works for as many users as you want.

I highly recommend using it for any one who has to manage more than one Microsoft account, it is brilliant and such a simple way of managing multiple accounts!
