Yeah you can use testflight to distribute betas and set up an enterprise area in the app store for your own enterprise apps to be distributed to enterprise enrolled devices. 

Not the same as sideloading a random executable though and you're still subject to Apple's review process etc.

Are you in the Apple Developer program? I’m guessing there might be a test option there.

So you're all telling me that there is no "side load" feature for iPhone apps?! This is a dreadful obstacle to getting the app onto company staff phones. Luckily I have an Apple account that was recently renewed (for 150 goddamn $), but I'll have to fill-in all the store compliance documentation and make keys and fumble through their cryptic alien processes, and so on and on. Goddammit again.
