I have to move content between prod env to QA env every week. Can we use content transfer tool for my requirement?

The documents mentioned like below,

"The Content Transfer Tool is a tool developed by Adobe that can be used to initiate the migration of existing content from a source AEM instance (on-premise or AMS) to the target AEM Cloud Service instance."

@Kamaraj_AEM  We used content Transfer tool to migrate DAM assets from S3 or AEM on Prem to AEMaaCS. In the similar way you can copy the content as well. But that needed a BPA report to be generated and fix the issues before we move the content or assets. Refer to below link

But if your requirement is from AEMaaCS environments (PROD to QA ) best practise is to use 'content copy tool'

Let me know which business requirement is not satisfied will let you know the alternative for it.

@Jagadeesh_Prakash  Thanks for your clear input.

My requirement is move a set of pages with assets. The associated assets are in different different folders. So I am not able to include all the folder paths in the content copy tool. 
That is why I planned to go for CTT. Now you have cleared my doubt.
