# Registering Your License and Performing Initial Setup

This section explains everything you need to know to start using Parallels Desktop Enterprise Edition as quickly as possible.

It includes signing up for a [Parallels Business Account](https://my.parallels.com/login), registering your license, planning your user groups, familiarizing yourself with Parallels Desktop, discovering [Parallels Management Portal](/landing/pd-ag/getting-started/configuring-golden-images-and-policies-in-the-management-portal.md), and more.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note**: If you are planning to choose Singe Sign-On (SSO) as your main activation method, check out [this section](/landing/pd-ag/getting-started/configuring-the-single-sign-on-sso-integration-with-parallels-my-account.md) of the guide. Enterprise Edition enables you to combine SSO and license key activations across the same setup as you see fit.
