They ARE similar, however; a 'parole' is a release from jail/prison after you have already completed a certain portion of your sentence behind bars. 'Probation" is a sentence unto itself - you are sentenced to probation without ever having to actually spend any time in jail/prison, based on your promise that you won't re-offend and that you will abide by the terms of the probation. To violate your probation (VOP) could subject you to being incarcerated for the unexpired remainder of your sentence.

How do you report someone who is in violation of probation?
The probation officer will investigate and see if there was, in fact, a violation. If he or she believes a violation did occur, then the offender can be arrested, so as to have a court hearing. This hearing usually takes place between the prosecuting attorney, the offender and his attorney, the probation officer, and the judge. After hearing all of the facts and arguments, it is then that a judge decides if the offender's probation will be revoked, and he or she will serve any remaining jail time that was originally suspended.
