For users that need to access multiple institutions

Rooster doesn't support multiple institutions in tabs within one window. Use separate browser profiles to access different institutions simultaneously.

Setup process:

  1. Sign out of your Microsoft Edge account

  1. Create separate profiles for each institution you need to access

  1. Sign back in using the same account in each profile

    Each institution will now run in its own browser window with a separate profile.
