TERMINOLOGY & MIGRATION GUIDE
Resend → Bento Translation

A filtered group of contacts based on traits or behavior.

Migration Tips
- Start with a single project or service to validate your Bento setup before migrating everything.
- Keep Resend credentials active for a short overlap so you can fall back if needed during cutover.
- Use Bento anonymous event tracking and tags from day one so you can build richer journeys than you had with Resend.
- Rebuild key transaction flows first such as signups, password resets, and invoices, then layer on marketing sequences.
Watch Out For
- Historical Resend logs and metrics do not automatically migrate so export anything you need for compliance before shutting the account down.
- Inbound email routes and Resend specific features need new implementations inside Bento or your application.
- DNS changes and domain warm up can affect deliverability for a short period so plan migrations outside peak sending windows.
