Self hosting GitHub is an option as well. We've been self hosting GitHub Enterprise for years and it has had no downtime other than during scheduled updates (at night, when nobody's at work).

Is it free to self host like GitLab or Gitea? If not, what does it offer that you can't get from those?


On-premise or own-cloud hosting is quite import for some customers.

Yes... it is quite important- That's why people use things like Gitlab or Gitea....

But back to the original question, what does Github Enterprise offer that you can't get from Gitlab or Gitea?

Yes it is, and GitLab and Gitea both offer that, which brings us back to the question I asked, what does GitHub Enterprise offer that you can't get from GitLab and Gitea?


No it is not free, it is GitHub's main source of revenue.
