## Overview{% #overview %}

For organizations that remain multi-organization, Organization Groups introduces centralized governance across organizations, reducing the operational cost that makes multi-organization expensive.

## Centralize governance across organizations{% #centralize-governance-across-organizations %}

Organization Groups lets administrators manage multiple Datadog organizations as a single unit. Instead of configuring roles, policies, and settings individually per organization, administrators define them once at the group level and push them to member organizations.

- **View and manage organizations in a group.** See all member organizations from the group and navigate between them.
- **Push roles and policies from group to member organizations.** Define custom roles, access policies, and session settings in the parent organization and apply them to child organizations.
- **Manage users centrally.** Add or remove users across multiple organizations from the parent without per-organization invitations.
- **Configure roles, teams, and Data Access Control policies across organizations.** Define access rules once and apply them across organizations.

## Apply organization groups{% #apply-organization-groups %}

### For new multi-organization deployments{% #for-new-multi-organization-deployments %}

If your use case requires multi-organization, Organization Groups gives you centralized controls to manage it from a single parent organization.

### For existing multi-organization customers considering consolidation{% #for-existing-multi-organization-customers-considering-consolidation %}

Organization Groups provides a middle path. If full consolidation is impractical, Organization Groups brings many of the benefits of a single organization without requiring migration. These benefits include centralized policy management, reduced configuration drift, and simpler user management.
