Absolutely needed. We have MANY duplicate parent accounts due to integration with our ERP systems and need to merge them…but we cannot without removing all children accounts first. Very time-consuming!
This continues to be a massive blocker for people. I would love to see the ability to let SuperAdmin’s at minimum merge Parent/Child companies with connections. It is painful to have to manually disconnect and reconnect companies.
Please please fix this. It would be so useful!!
Going on two years now with no obvious movement on this much needed feature. Incredibly time cumbersome to have to remove the relationship, merge, then re-associate.
Completely agree with everyone here. The parent-child company feature is really needed but we don’t use it because of the inability to merge companies. I think the parent company relationship tool should be revamped completely to make it more useful.
Yes, please. It is quite a hassle to disassociate child companies, merge them and then reassociate the merged company. I have to do this very often in a given week, so it gets annoying.
Pls fix!
Would be awesome.
This needs fixing PDQ - it’s hopeless that this issue still exists.
hey team, it makes sense that sometimes, parent companies may acquire their child companies and therefore, a merger is required.
Can we please re-look at this? Thank you!
@YiRui_Chua thank you -- to clarify, the issue is that parent/child companies can’t be merged with ANY other company (it’s not that just parent/child companies can’t be merged with EACH OTHER) 
@YiRui_Chua yes indeed.
My use case (example):
Situation in Hubspot
- Company A
- Child Company A1
- Child Companies A2 … A20 (yes this happens in reality and there are sometimes even more children)
- Company A Duplicate 1
- Company A Duplicate 2
--> Now I want to merge Company A with the two duplicates.
My steps:
1. I have to unassign Child Companies A1 - A20 from Company A
2. Merge Company A with Company A Duplicate 1
3. Merge Company A with Company A Duplicate 2
4. Assign Child Companies A1 - A20 to Company A again
This is a lot of work and occurs more often than you would believe.
Best!

Agreed and ironically the companies, by nature, that require the most merging are the larger enterprise level companies because they often have subsidaries as well as mulitple domains etc. To not have this feature available feels counterintuitive. Please add!
Upvoted. This would be really very appreciated feature. At least the possibility to merge a (duplicate) company without parent/child relations into a (master) company that already has a parent/child relation.
Kicking this up again, as we found the need to merge subsidary companies that may at one time be operating seperately, but now have combined or merged. Identifying those parent/child relationships are a great feature, but is a roadblock and inefficient having to undo all the work you did before to merge and redo everything again after the merge is completed.
