Migration Guide
Move from HubSpot to Bento with zero guesswork.
Step-by-step guide to migrating from HubSpot to Bento. Export contacts, workflows, and CRM data with our migration process.
Migration Flow
A practical migration plan from HubSpot to Bento
This guide follows a simple sequence: export cleanly, map data correctly, then validate before cutover. No generic product pitch, just the steps your team needs.
Export checklist
- 1Audit HubSpot assets
List the CRM objects, properties, segments, workflows, forms, templates, reports, integrations, domains, and scheduled sends your teams still use.
- 2Export CRM records
Open the relevant CRM record view, choose Export, select CSV or another supported format, and include the properties and associations required for migration.
- 3Export segments and properties
Export the members of each important segment and export CRM property definitions so the team can map static membership and dynamic criteria into Bento.
- 4Document workflows
Go to Automation > Workflows, export the workflow table, and export individual workflows as PNG images before rebuilding their triggers, branches, delays, and actions.
- 5Export marketing email data
Go to Marketing > Email and export overall performance data. Export recipient-level events for the campaigns whose delivery, click, unsubscribe, or bounce history must remain available.
List the CRM objects, properties, segments, workflows, forms, templates, reports, integrations, domains, and scheduled sends your teams still use.
Data portability map
Know in advance what imports directly and what may require a rebuild.
Validate and cut over
Treat cutover like launch QA. Validate your highest-risk paths first, then move sending traffic.

Tips
- Use the migration to retire workflows and reports that no team owns
- Plan tags and segments before importing instead of copying every legacy audience
- Keep HubSpot available until records, suppressions, forms, workflows, and reports are verified
- Assign one sender to each audience and message type during the transition
Watchouts
- Workflow exports do not include performance, history, or the emails used inside workflows
- Paid HubSpot forms lose paid features after account deactivation and may need replacement
- Sales, service, content, data, and revenue dependencies require separate migration decisions
- Historical HubSpot reporting does not automatically become Bento reporting
