We are excited to announce that Viva Glint now supports Microsoft 365 multitenant organization (MTO) capabilities to help organizations seamlessly deliver enterprise-wide Viva Glint surveys across multiple tenants. These capabilities are also available for Viva Engage and can be enabled via the Microsoft 365 admin center or Microsoft Entra admin center.
Tenant complexity can create challenges
A tenant is a digital representation of your organization and provides reliable architecture for security, productivity and compliance at scale. Organizations may have multiple tenants with different employee groups for a variety of reasons including organic growth, regulation, mergers and acquisitions that all contribute to how many tenants an organization owns and manages. This segmentation is often necessary but can also create complexity when you want to distribute Viva Glint surveys across tenant boundaries.
The value of MTO for complex enterprise organizations
Understanding employee engagement and feedback across your organization is a global need that shouldn’t be constrained by tenant boundaries. To improve the employee experience across your organization, your people need seamless access to Viva Glint results to understand sentiment and drive change.
With the release of multitenant capabilities, users from different tenants within an organization can seamlessly access Viva Glint. Administrators can deliver one enterprise survey and provide dashboard access to managers across multiple tenants in their organization.
Multitenant capabilities allow organizations to arrange their tenants as secure, autonomous entities whose users can access applications installed to other tenants, regardless of their home tenant. Tenants are connected by common policies and foundational services to move their collective mission forward.
When setting up a multitenant organization, administrators have two options to sync users across tenants.
Requirements for Viva Glint and MTO
We have outlined the process for setting up Viva Glint for a multitenant organization here. This article outlines in more detail the two options to sync users: B2B collaboration or cross-tenant synchronization.
Summary
We’re excited for the support of multitenant capabilities in Viva Glint. Organizations can now seamlessly deliver enterprise-wide surveys across multiple tenants, ensuring that employee engagement and feedback are not constrained by tenant boundaries. This feature enables administrators to provide a unified survey experience and dashboard access to managers across different tenants, enhancing the overall employee experience and driving organizational change.

Requirements for Viva Glint and MTO
