APCu Manager edges out Memcached Redux on rating (4.6★ vs 4.3★), but the gap is small enough that pricing fit and feature differentiation should drive the decision more than the headline number.
Recommended by size: small/early-stage site owners who need fast install and low risk should default to APCu Manager; mid-market and enterprise site owners with specific feature requirements should evaluate both — Memcached Redux's 9-review base may include the workflow context that matches your specific use case better than APCu Manager's broader-but-shallower coverage.

APCu Manager and Memcached Redux both publish their export options on their marketplace listing pages (or in their support docs); some apps offer one-click import from competitors, others require CSV. The fastest check: search "import from Memcached Redux" in each app's help center. AppRanks does not track migration tooling directly — this is a category-specific capability worth verifying before commitment.
