Yes, I changed from Xanax to Klonopin about 3 years ago and there was no symptoms other than there is no "whoosh" of the benzo going into and out of your system with Klonopin.
Remember that 0.5 mg of Klonopin is roughly equal to 1 mg of Xanax.
Klonopin may be a bit more sedating than Xanax at first so I'd take the biggest portion of my daily intake at bed time. The half life of Klonopin is almost a whole day so you may only have to take it once a day.
I far prefer Klonopin to Xanax.
