For a full list of features included with {% data variables.product.product_name %}, see our [Pricing](https://github.com/pricing) page.

## What are the differences between {% data variables.product.product_name %} and other plans?

A key difference between {% data variables.product.product_name %} and other {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom_the_website %} plans is access to an enterprise account, which gives administrators a central point for managing multiple organizations. See "[AUTOTITLE](/admin/overview/about-enterprise-accounts)."

{% data reusables.enterprise.ghe-includes-ghec-and-ghes %} For more information about {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_server %} and how it differs from {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_cloud %}, see "[AUTOTITLE](/admin/overview/about-github-for-enterprises#about-deployment-options)."

## About enterprise types

Before you start using {% data variables.product.product_name %}, you must decide whether you want to allow your developers to create and manage their own personal accounts, or whether you want to use {% data variables.product.prodname_emus %}, which allows you to create and manage the user accounts for your developers through your IdP.

If you choose {% data variables.product.prodname_emus %}, all user accounts must be provisioned by a supported IdP via SCIM, and you can manage team and organization membership via your IdP, too. {% data variables.enterprise.prodname_managed_users_caps %} are strongly restricted in their ability to contribute outside of your enterprise.
**Before** starting with {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_cloud %}, you must choose an enterprise type.

If you choose not to use {% data variables.product.prodname_emus %}, your developers will create their own personal accounts on {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom_the_website %}, but you can optionally require SAML authentication before those personal accounts can access your enterprise's resources.
* Enterprise with personal accounts
* Enterprise with managed users

To help you decide which choice is best for your enterprise, see "[AUTOTITLE](/admin/identity-and-access-management/understanding-iam-for-enterprises/choosing-an-enterprise-type-for-github-enterprise-cloud)."
