Send a seed-list test from Bento and verify rendering, links, and tracking.
Compare list and segment counts against Constant Contact before your first live send.
Rebuild high-value automations first, then test each trigger path before cutover.
Keep Constant Contact running for a short overlap while you monitor deliverability in Bento.
