Hi @TapNDine

 

Contacts and Companies are two of the three key objects in HubSpot - the third is deals.

 

The are functionally very simialr but have different default properties and behavious so that they can properly represent individual people (the contacts) and accounts (the companies). 

 

One of the major differences is that mutliple contacts can be assoicated with a single company, but you can't do this the other way around.

 

Hope this helps.
