> What's the value of hosting your own Github alternative as an organization / company?

Despite Github maturity not everyone is comfortable hosting their own code at someone else's host. Github could get hacked, employees could copy your code, etc. Github Enterprise can help with these concerns, but it's expensive.

+1 It's not a matter of cost, we'll just never trust a third party for hosting our code.

This 100x. A lot of employers (including several I've worked for) have strong security policies, and like have 4-5 nine uptimes; the security aspect, if your code contains a lot of valuable IP, is huge, and I would be rather wary of letting Github be responsible for my own IP for non-open source projects, rather than the more palatable choice of having control over it in-house.
