The Enterprise CDH Hadoop version is open source from Cloudera, though if your enterprise is looking for support services from Cloudera then one has to pay for support services.

Cloudera Manager and Cloudera Navigator is Hadoop Cluster management and Hadoop data governance tool respectively, which is propitiatory to Cloudera.

Cloudera contributes to apache hadoop in many ways. Some of them are open source and free to use and some are not open source and commercial.

Cloudera adds their own features to base apache hadoop (eg: human readable option in hadoop file system commands: "hadoop fs -df -h" , "hadoop fs -du -h" and a lot more.. ) these are open source under apache license.

Cloudera manager is the hadoop management tool from cloudera for managing hadoop eco systems which is not open source and available in free editions and enterprise editions.

"All software developed by Cloudera for CDH is released with an Apache 2.0 license".

In other words, it is open source.
