## Enterprise Hub overview

Enterprise Hub offers a flexible way to represent an enterprise’s real-world organizational structure inside Airtable, using organizational units (org units).

- A [hub organization](/docs/enterprise-hub-in-airtable#understanding-and-using-organizational-units) is a central collection of org units. This central collection allows super admins to manage all users across the org units.

The hub organization also has enterprise settings that will default apply to all org units. While super admins can manage the org units directly, they can also appoint additional org unit admins to manage their users and resources and customize enterprise settings.
- Each [org unit](/docs/enterprise-hub-in-airtable#understanding-and-using-organizational-units) has a name that reflects its purpose in your organization. It also has users and resources like workspaces, bases, and interfaces, similar to how a non-hub organization has worked on Airtable.

Your hub organization is also a default org unit. Any users, resources, and user groups not assigned to an explicit org unit will live in your default org unit, and its enterprise settings will be the default enterprise settings configured at the hub level.
