    As the noun "이용" implies, "이용하다" is used to mean "to use sth as a leverage" or "to use sth for sb's benefits", and can be used for people, things, transportations, or services, etc.

    One the other hand, "사용하다" is used to mean "to use sth as a tool" generally.
    It is hardly used for people. ^^'

    (*sth = something)
