Need to have two zoom phone systems open at the same time - possible?

I just started my own small business and set up a zoom phone number.  I am still working part-time at my former job until they can find a replacement.  My former employer also used Zoom phones.  

 

Here is the question, I'd like to connect to both systems during the workday on one computer, so I can monitor both while working.  Is there any way to do this or is the only solution to open the different systems on different computers?

 

Thanks for any insight.

    It is only practical to run zomm account live on one device. - remember zoom phone can run on a physical IP Phone.

    If you setup call routing you can have one number going to many poeple.
    You can also have many people getting calls from many numbers.

    @PJ901 unfortunately, zoom phone requires you to sign into the client, and you can only be active in 1 account at a time in the client.  Therefore, you can only be using 1 instance of Zoom Phone on a computer.  Sorry!

    @PJ901 , if you are referring Zoom phone admin page, you can log in to different admin page by using different browser(i.e one using Chrome and another using firefox) and/or using incognito mode on each browser to ensure it will not interfere with the current user account logged in to the client.

    Interesting… You could run some virtual environment on your PC/MAC, then log into one of your Zoom in that space.

    Might get funky with the Microphone and speakers. 

     

    Why don’t you get Zoom phone on your mobile device and take calls on that and have the PC/MAC for your other Zoom account.

    Yes,  ​@JonFoxP ,

    You can run zoom phone on your mobile and get all your calls through your data plan via zoom.
