Migration Tips

  • Export your people and segments before disabling any Encharge flows or forms.
  • Rebuild your most important flows like trial onboarding and upgrade nudges first in Bento.
  • Keep Encharge running in parallel for a short time while you test Bento sends.
  • Use Bento tags to mirror your high value Encharge segments so reporting stays familiar.

Watch Out For

  • Encharge exports do not include activity or email event history so reporting will start fresh in Bento.
  • Flows and broadcasts cannot be imported automatically and must be rebuilt in Bento.
  • Large exports can take time to generate so request them before scheduling your first Bento campaigns.
