It is the best way to migrate libraries you invested much work into, but uploading large libraries to iCloud requires a paid subscription for more storage than the free 5GB - for at least a month, and it is slow.

The searchable faces names will upload (only on Photos 1.5 or older, not on Photos 2.0), but not the faces thumbnails and albums. All edited images will be paired with their originals, so you can undo the edits and revert to the original. Your albums and folders will migrate, keywords, titles, and other metadata.

There is currently no completely lossless way to merge Photos Libraries, because Photos does not support importing one Photos Library into another library. (this applies to Photos 5.0 on Catalina as well) Written for Photos 4.0 on macOS 10.14.4 or older:

The library structure with albums, smart albums should be preserved in the merged library.The original photos and the edited versions should be merged into the merged library as master-version pairs, so it will be possible to revert edited photos to the original.When merging two photo libraries we usually want a lossless merge:
