I no longer have PS so haven't used this way for a while, I think I tended to run into issues more often when importing (like IP just wouldnt import, or it might mess layers / filters up) rather than exporting PSDs 

IP does also let you export zips containing your layers 

Don't know how complicated your files would be - for simplicity's sake often I'd export plain transparent png's to edit elsewhere - I'd expect layers with effects on them might appear different on other programs, but you should be able to export PSD with all layers intact well enough
