Our organization finally purchased version six of DNN so that we can upgrade from version four. I've been tasked with finding a way to move our users database to the server that will host DNN 6. In my search of the DNN Community Forums so far, I've come up with the following:

 Migration 1

Migration 2

Migration 3

So is Data Springs' application the preferred module then? I've only found the above post recommending BuldUserManager, but I didn't want to rule it out yet. Are there any other database migration modules I should be considering?

If you are only looking to export users from old site to new and not move anything else, the DataSprings module works perfect!

I used PHD BulkUser manager successfully for this purpose a couple of times, but you should start with a backup of your target database before you import.
