RB2B Migration Checklist: Data, Routing and Continuity

An RB2B migration should preserve exclusions, field mappings, account ownership and historical visit context. Choose the replacement separately, then compare delivery before removing the old setup.

This is a Leadpipe-authored buying guide. Product statements are based on the linked vendor references; evaluation steps are recommendations, not reported test results.

Start with the replacement decision

Use the RB2B alternatives guide to build the shortlist. This page covers the migration work once you have chosen a candidate. Keeping those decisions separate prevents a long vendor list from hiding operational risks.

Inventory the current workflow

Item What to preserve
Plan and output Whether records are companies, contact profiles or enriched contacts
Exclusions Customers, staff, partners, competitors and excluded URLs
Destinations Slack or Teams channels, CRM fields and downstream workflows
Ownership Existing account owner and rules for new accounts
History Required visit records, timestamps and account notes
Suppression Opt-outs, deletion requests and downstream exclusions

RB2B documents exclusions and plan-specific integrations. Export or record the settings you actually use. Do not assume a feature absent from an old comparison is absent from your account.

Validate before switching delivery

Install the candidate only on approved pages and under the site’s established privacy configuration. Compare a common traffic window. Label the source clearly and prevent duplicate notifications or outreach while both systems run.

Check a known customer, an excluded URL, a repeat visitor and a new account. The goal is to demonstrate delivery and governance as well as successful identification. Confirm that a CRM update preserves account ownership and does not overwrite trusted fields unexpectedly.

Make the cutover reversible

Record who can pause delivery, restore the prior integration and resolve duplicate records. Preserve needed exports before ending access, subject to contract terms. Remove the old script when the new workflow is accepted and document which system owns the next update.

A successful migration produces a stable workflow with clear ownership. It does not require a higher raw record count if the records are more relevant or easier to use. Compare accepted output and operating cost using the same definitions before and after cutover.

Where Leadpipe fits

Leadpipe supports both account-level and person-level workflows. Its IP to Company API retrieves stored company information from an IPv4 or IPv6 address; its separate Identification product supplies eligible visitor records and activity. Choose company context for account research and person-level output when the action requires a specific visitor. A company lookup returns no people or visits. Confirm API eligibility and its separate lookup allowance in the official documentation.

Person-level coverage is strongest in the US. EU/UK traffic defaults to company-level identification; person-level requires affirmative consent. Fields can be missing, so judge required output on your actual traffic. If you need research signals from outside your website, evaluate Orbit separately and check its audience allowances.

The current pricing page lists Pro 500 at $147/month for 500 identification credits. The trial is 7 days or 500 profiles, whichever comes first, no card. Confirm the delivery and data-use requirements of your chosen plan.

Use the vendor evaluation kit to record the same acceptance criteria for every candidate. Start a Leadpipe trial when website identification is the requirement you want to measure.

Browse the comparison directory for alternatives and head-to-head guides. Use the software buying guide to define requirements and the person-versus-company guide to interpret identification results.
