due to my experience, there are plenty of them :-)

I always use ZEXP.  I did not check  the new 2.11.0, yet.  But normally,
ZEXP-transfer (export/import) should work, at least for subsequent
versions.

IMPORTANT:  After import, the fist click onto the "content"-Object
starts the upgrade of the content model. You should see a message
"Updated object-model from build #xxx to #yyy".

Additionally, you should always transfer the complete site with ZEXP
(see below).

That moves only (part of)  the content and will not migrate the
templates. But it is ok (or even better), if you did not apply any
changes to the standard ZMS templates.

My experience: ZEXP works for the complete site, XML for single
objects/branches inside the content object.
