Contacts are the People or Organizations you're selling to using Pipedrive. In Pipedrive — and most things related to sales — you need a contact before you can do much else. All actions associated with these Contacts in Pipedrive will be automatically track in the contact's specific Detail View page.
People contacts are the specific customers that you are selling to from Pipedrive. These Person contacts are the backbone of the sales process, and any information relating to each contact — like scheduled activities, or emails — will be tracked in the Detail View of that Person.
Organizations act as larger collections of data in Pipedrive. All of the People related to an Organization will be listed in it's Detail View, as well as any Notes or Activities performed in relation to any People/Deals related to the Organization.
Note: If you need additional fields to in your account — like job titles and mailing addresses — we suggest creating custom fields for that purpose.
