Terraform Cloud (TFC) is a free to use, self-service SaaS platform that extends the capabilities of the open source Terraform CLI and adds collaboration and automation features.

Terraform Cloud enables connecting to common VCS platforms (GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket) and triggering Terraform runs (plan and apply) from changes to configuration within the VCS. TFC manages state for the user, including keeping a history of changes. Terraform Cloud exposes an HTTP API that anyone can integrate with to build more automation around infrastructure change.

Terraform CLI is downloadable software that provisions infrastructure as code manually from a local machine. By itself, Terraform CLI does not provide functionality for collaboration, state history, etc. Terraform CLI can be connected to TFC via the "remote" backend to enable using and gaining all the benefits of TFC with the same CLI workflow.

Terraform Enterprise is offered as a private installation. It is designed to suit the needs of large organizations including more features (audit logging, SSO/SAML), more customization (private networking), better performance (job scaling), and higher levels of support.

Terraform Cloud is offered as a multi-tenant SaaS platform and is designed to suit the needs of smaller teams and organizations.

Yes, you may choose to not use Terraform Cloud at any point. Your configuration is in your VCS system and if you reconfigure the backend then Terraform will automatically migrate your state out of Terraform Cloud. Note that you will lose all the additional functionality that TFC provides: remote runs, VCS connections, state management, etc. If in the future you choose to use TFC again, you can once again modify your backend configuration to "remote" and Terraform will migrate your existing state into TFC.
