how to migrate from xg135 to xgs116 best practice ?

Question

HI, 
 I have routing, rules and polices, application filtering, vpns, ADC and customer users configured in XG135 
 Now as the product obsolete and we purchase xgs116 with new extreme product license. 
 To transfer all these configurations Is exporting and importing configuration a good idea or is there any other way ? 
 Please guide. 
 Thank You

You can try to import the xg-backup to xgs. May work if port-count is similar. If this didn't work, you should consult your partner / migration desk, because users and VPN-configuration is not simple to export/import.

 The Sophos Migration Desk can be engaged by sending an email to UTMtoSFOSMigrations@Sophos.com . 
 If the Sophos Migration Desk deems the migration too complex, they will recommend Sophos Professional Services . 
 Expect a response within 2 business days with next steps and documentation needed to proceed.
