About enterprise accounts on GitHub Enterprise Cloud
Your enterprise account on GitHub.com allows you to manage multiple organizations. Your enterprise account must have a handle, like an organization or personal account on GitHub.
Organizations are shared accounts where enterprise members can collaborate across many projects at once. Organization owners can manage access to the organization's data and projects with sophisticated security and administrative features. For more information, see "About organizations."
Enterprise owners can create organizations and link the organizations to the enterprise. After you add organizations to your enterprise account, you can manage and enforce policies for the organizations. Specific enforcement options vary by setting; generally, you can choose to enforce a single policy for every organization in your enterprise account or allow owners to set policy on the organization level. For more information, see "Setting policies for your enterprise."

About Enterprise Managed Users
Enterprise Managed Users is a feature of GitHub Enterprise Cloud that provides even greater control over enterprise members and resources. With Enterprise Managed Users, all members are provisioned and managed through your identity provider (IdP) instead of users creating their own accounts on GitHub. Team membership can be managed using groups on your IdP. Managed users are restricted to their enterprise and are unable to push code, collaborate, or interact with users, repositories, and organizations outside of their enterprise. Para obter mais informações, consulte "Sobre Enterprise Managed Users."
About billing for your enterprise account
The bill for your enterprise account includes the monthly cost for each member of your enterprise. The bill includes any paid licenses in organizations outside of your enterprise account, subscriptions to apps in GitHub Marketplace, additional paid services for your enterprise like data packs for Git Large File Storage, and usage for Segurança Avançada GitHub.
For more information about billing for your GitHub Enterprise Cloud subscription, see "Viewing the subscription and usage for your enterprise account" and "About billing for your enterprise."
GitHub Enterprise offers two deployment options.
