Export / Import Database phpmyadmin V Magento

[nvbmgto]

Hello,

I have to migrate a Magento site to a new server. Is it better to export the database using phpMyadming or Magento: Systmen > Tools > Backup > Database Backup?  Does it make any difference?

Thanks

The best way to export or import a Magento database is to use mysqldump.

It will be in order of magnitude faster than phpMyAdmin or Magento backend.
