## About containers


> **Info**
>
> In the CertCentral UI, containers are called *divisions.*


Containers allow you to create hierarchical divisions of operation. Each container can be configured to have a specific set of features and permissions. You can create purely administrative containers or fully featured containers with the ability to manage users and order certificates. Containers use templates to determine their available features.
