We are on GetResponse with 12,400 contacts. We need to keep subscribers, tags, and suppressions.

Thanks. Start with suppressions, then your list, then the flows that make money. We can review your domain setup before you send.

Teams switch for deliverability and stay for the support.

“Moving to Bento was the best thing I ever did for my list and its profitability”

Iliane L.

“I love how easy it is to use to design SaaS emailing sequences. You can also see rapidly which campaigns are the money makers. But what I love the most is undoubtedly the deliverability that you have once you've set up custom domain tracking”

Arnaud B.

“The support and community within Bento is hands down the best I've ever seen from any company, ever.”

Questions about leaving GetResponse.

Will I lose my GetResponse contacts and automations when I switch?

GetResponse can export contacts, tags, custom fields, suppressions, and workflow data. Map and test contact fields before the full import. Automations do not transfer as working Bento flows, so document their triggers, filters, delays, branches, and messages before rebuilding them.

Is GetResponse's automation similar to Bento?

Both products support visual workflows and behavioral triggers. GetResponse documents conditions, actions, filters, page visits, ecommerce behavior, and abandoned carts. Bento is a stronger fit when custom product or website events are the main source of truth. Test one important workflow in both products and confirm which plan includes every step you need.

Will switching hurt my email deliverability?

No provider can guarantee that inbox placement will stay the same after a migration. Authenticate the sending domain, preserve suppressions, start with recent engaged recipients, and compare matched cohorts. Bento includes authentication help, reputation monitoring, and batching controls. GetResponse also documents automatic DKIM, DMARC, and SPF setup for supported domain providers.

How long does a GetResponse migration take?

The timeline depends on your lists, duplicate memberships, workflows, templates, hosted pages, webinars, courses, chat setup, reports, and integrations. Inventory those assets, rebuild one critical journey at a time, and keep GetResponse available until the new setup passes end-to-end tests.

Will there be downtime?

No. Keep GetResponse running while you import, test, authenticate your sending domain, and warm up. Once Bento is ready, move your sending and phase out GetResponse.

Can the Bento team help if I get stuck?

Yes. The team can review your current setup, help you decide what to move first, and advise on deliverability, data mapping, and launch order.
