Hello Samuel,

The best way we've found to that is as follow.

1. Take into account that you have data tables and config tables. Data
tables are the ones you just mentioned and config tables are tables like
group, user, role, group-role, and so on.
2. When you work on development (test) systems, you need to know where the
changes are applied so you can move them to the production system when
needed. Config is mantained in ZZZAuto files and you can move that from one
server to another.
3. Backup and update individual tables when you need to pass changes
(dynamic fields, permissions, groups, roles, etc)
4. Never move or update data tables (ticket, article,
faq,dynamic_field_value).
5. Processes, ACLs and stats you can export and import, but need to have
config data first (dynamic Fields, Process Configuration)

We have not found a better way of doing so, you just need to be sure your
systems are kept syncronized after a pass to production.

Regards
