How to migrate from Cloud Formation to Terraform?

We have decided to migrate from AWS Cloud Formation to Terraform because:

  1. Cloud Formation does not seem to work well with nested functions.
  2. Cloud Formation takes quite a bit of time to rollout complex projects. In our case sometimes up to 10 minutes.
  3. Cloud Formation may stop with unclear reason (which will be difficult to get from logs).

Questions that we have are:

  1. Is there any recommended path/procedure/strategy for this migration?
  2. What are the long term disadvantages of using Terraform comparing to AWS Cloud Formation? Thank you
