This is so ridiculous. You have 7 employees and can't afford for them to have email. Maybe in 1999, that was acceptable but not now. Here is a list of reasons why this is a problem:
This is one employee with 7 disparate email accounts.

I don't have any experience with the product, but eM Client looks promising. Pro version allows for adding unlimited accounts. Works with Exchange/Office365.

Sadly they can't even test the functionality with the free version. But a $50 test isn't so bad....

Again.... it's that Outlook can't handle that many email accounts let alone calendars etc. Looking for a single app to have it all work in.
OWA is not a relevant option.interesting - mine doesn't seem to have any problems

I was going to say, I have 4 Exchange accounts and 3 imap accounts in Outlook 2013.

here's my calendar view

I am currently using 5 email accounts and 10! calendars in Outlook 2010, no issues ever except for the Dynamics CRM plugin which is garbage. On prem exchange, but 2 of the mailboxes i have setup in outlook are O365
And most of the calendars are near empty -

And most of the calendars are near empty1 email account is 1.5 TB of data with 7 years of archives (and yes the archives are searched for old client data on a regular basis so they need to be tied to it locally).
another is 80 gigs the rest are pretty small -
OK - Outlook is having an issue with the number of accounts (I gotta believe that it's related to the caching, but what do I know).
What about App V? Now I don't think normal people can get access to App V (I think requires Volume License and other things) and I have NO clue what it takes to build one or use it, etc.
So what if we make it a little simpler - A VM with Office installed inside it? Then the user can have two copies of Outlook running side by side, one with 4 accounts and one with 3.
Yes there will be licensing costs, but to solve the issue, it might be worth it.
Additional VMs can be created if 4 or 3 accounts can't co-exist in a single copy of Outlook.

another is 80 tb's the rest are pretty smallterabytes? That is a crazy stupid amount of email. I really hope that our not really technical @Minion-Queen screwed that up.

oops should have said gigs on the 80 one the 1.5 TB is right though
-
@Minion-Queen OH. Dear god. I almost had a heart attack.

That's better and more believable
-
I have 5 Exchange accounts in my Outlook 2016 locally and I consistantly have problems. I barely use one calendar.

See it's not just me! Yeah I have 7 Exchange accounts and 7 calendars!

So anyway.. despite my typing spelling and just plain got it wrong issues.
What about what @Dashrender asked above

Isn't there a way to run Outlook in some sort of container on the desktop to split up multiple copies of it without needing a full VM with a full additional operating system for it?

Yeah, it's call App-V.
