问题
Is there something similar to the iOS Developer Enterprise Program for Windows Phone 8 apps?
回答1:
Yes, you can join the enterprise program by signing up for a Company account in the Windows Phone Dev Center. The process is called Company App Distribution.
In a nutshell, once your company account has been verified, you'll receive an ID that you'll provide to Symantec, who will generate an Enterprise Mobile Code Signing Certificate. You'll use this certificate to generate a token (that devices use to identify themselves with your enterprise) and to sign applications. The token and the apps can be distributed via e-mail, browser, MDM, or Company Hub.
E-mail and browser distribution are straight-forward, MDM occurs through a device management system such as Windows InTune. Company Hub is an on-device application that your organization develops for in-house application discovery, installation, and launch.
See the Windows Phone 8: Enterprise Development talk from the //Build/ conference for more information.

There is a feature for this explicitly added in WP8. It's called company hubs.
Expect more details to be available shortly as the SDK has only been available for a few hours and documentation is slowly being distributed/updated online.

This is something that I've been interested in myself, here's the official blog entry about this from Microsoft's side:

It all sounds great, but then you get to this: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w8itproinstall/thread/3092a681-b9cc-473b-83aa-b492ea7f3946
It doesn't appear to have actually been implemented yet.
Good luck!

It's possible to develop private WP8 apps for your company only and distribute them directly, not via Windows Phone Store.
You should start by downloading the SDK, the web documentation should be available soon.
