In OpenProject, some features are defined as an Enterprise add-on. This means, they are not part of the [Community edition](#community-edition) and therefore not free of charge. Enterprise add-ons are available as [cloud](#cloud) or [on-premises](#on-premises) versions. You can choose from the following plans to get access to all Enterprise add-ons: Basic, Professional, Premium and Corporate.

In OpenProject, you can choose from several integrations, such as the [Excel synchronization](#excel-synchronization) or the [Nextcloud integration](#nextcloud-integration). In contrast to a plugin, an integration refers to cross features between two software products (e.g., OpenProject and Nextcloud), where both pieces of software have code that is responsible for interacting with the other software, through e.g., an API. Whereas a [plugin](#plugin) is installed on top of / as part of the OpenProject installation. You'll need to actively install it.

Internal comments are available as [Enterprise add-on](#enterprise-add-on) in OpenProject. If enabled, users can choose whether their comment in a work package Activity tab is visible to everyone that has access to the work package – or if it is internal. An internal comment is only visible to users with a dedicated permission – by default, those with a project admin role.

### My time tracking

My time tracking is the name of an OpenProject [module](#module) that allows users to view, log and edit their personal time tracked on work packages. It can be displayed in a calendar or list view. A [system admin](#admin) can decide whether exact time tracking is allowed, which means users can add start and finish time to their entries. If administrators want to force their users to log start and finish time, an option to 'Require exact times' is available as an [Enterprise add-on](#enterprise-add-on).

### Work package

In OpenProject, a [work package](../user-guide/work-packages/#overview) is defined as an item in a project. It is a subset of a project that can be assigned to users for execution, such as Tasks, Bugs, User Stories, Milestones, and more. Work packages have a [type](#work-package-types), an [ID](#work-package-id) and a subject and may have additional attributes, such as assignee, responsible, [story points](#story-points) or [version](#versions). Work packages are displayed in a project timeline (unless they are [filtered](#filters) out in the timeline configuration) - either as a milestone or as a [phase](#phase). In order to use the work packages, the work package module has to be activated in the [project settings](#project-settings) by a project admin.
