"The community version doesn't have the ability to define your own library of local modules, or distribute it to remote agents. You need to make those changes individually on each agent which is possible by using external tools and time and effort. Nor can it distribute local plugins, or have access to the library of enterprise plugins to monitor applications such as VMWare, RHEV or Informix between others. The Enterprise version will have all this, plus the ability to distribute and manage your own local modules on your systems, individually or through policies.
