# Enterprise Edition (/self-host/enterprise-edition)

> Licensing, plans, and how to get started with self-hosted Enterprise Edition



When self-hosting Pangolin, you can run the **Community Edition** or the **Enterprise Edition**. Both editions provide the same core functionality. Enterprise Edition unlocks additional features with a license key on the `ee` Docker image.

<Check>
  Enterprise Edition is **free** for personal use and organizations with **less than $100,000 USD** gross annual revenue. You still need a valid license key to activate it.
</Check>

<Warning>
  Organizations with **$100,000+ USD** gross annual revenue require a **paid commercial license** to use Enterprise Edition.
</Warning>

## Hiding Enterprise features on Community Edition [#hiding-enterprise-features-on-community-edition]

On Community Edition, Enterprise-only capabilities may still appear in the dashboard but remain locked without the `ee` Docker image and a valid license key. To hide those UI elements entirely, set `disable_enterprise_features` under `flags` in your [`config.yml`](/self-host/advanced/config-file):

```yaml
flags:
  disable_enterprise_features: true
```

When enabled, Enterprise-only features are hidden from the UI. Restart the stack after updating the configuration file.
