"You name it, Sanity can do it."
What do you like best about Sanity?

It makes presenting different types of data a breeze. It helps empower clients to update their content while the changes appear seamlessly.

What do you dislike about Sanity?

I think there is a learning curve. That said, Sanity's Youtube content and docs help to make Sanity click, and the effort is worth it.

What problems is Sanity solving and how is that benefiting you?

I don't have to worry about exposing my database externally. A good GROQ query inside the studio provides a beautiful HTTPS endpoint that works as a nice API.

"The most customizable CMS on the market"
What do you like best about Sanity?

It's completely customizable to the experience you feel is best for your users. I love the scalability and editability. The fact that it also integrates seamlessy with deployment providers as well as other platforms is great.

Wish they had a few more templates for developers to utilize as a starting point, but I know they are working on it!

Sanity is replacing other dated content management systems on the market. They empower developers, creatives, and content editors to create ecosystems that are scalable and user-friendly.

Sanity should be available on the self-hosting service. Also, I am worried about the storage limitations.

1. Time management 2. Easy to customize

"Love working with Sanity as the headless CMS"
What do you like best about Sanity?

I love how customisable it is as a cms, and integrating Sanity with Nuxt makes for a really powerful solution for websites. The module ecosystem for Sanity is great too!

What do you dislike about Sanity?

For my current use case I honestly have no complaints whatsoever with regards to Sanity CMS.

What problems is Sanity solving and how is that benefiting you?

Sanity allows me to craft a bespoke CMS for my clients with a clean interface and great ease of use.

"Clean UI, straightforward implementation, adaptable to virtually any size/configuration"
What do you like best about Sanity?

We use Sanity exclusively in our Gatsby projects because it can handle anything we throw at it. Clean interface, relatively low learning curve, highly customizable UX in those situations where it's needed.

What do you dislike about Sanity?

Sanity enforces data standardization in its content lake... which is exactly what it *should* do, and I'm a fan, except that if you need or want to do quick and dirty data migration with simple import tools, this ain't no Wordpress (or insert more mass-targeted CMS name of your choice here). For projects requiring migration on anything more than a simple copy-paste or other manual operation, you're gonna have to master the Sanity API to make it happen.

What problems is Sanity solving and how is that benefiting you?

Building websites on next-gen ("jamstack") platforms, moving on from the the messy world of monolithic tools like Wordpress and Drupal.

"Perfect headless CMS"
What do you like best about Sanity?

Sanity has given me the power to create and public a simple admin interface for a local restauranteur, they can edit their menu quickly and efficiently even on mobile and a webhook calls for a rebuild of the site assets afterwards. Simplicity itself, and keeps things simple by allowing Google Auth so I can prevent them breaking things!

What do you dislike about Sanity?

There's little to dislike about Sanity. It might be difficult to customize the admin interface if you're not into front end development. Learning to code the content hierarchy and types can take some effort.

What problems is Sanity solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use Sanity with a Nuxt.js app and Cloudflare for a completely free CMS solution. It solves the problem of having a non-technical user be able to edit their menu "live" and have it show up on the website within a minute.

"Best cms for next js and easy to use"
What do you like best about Sanity?

I used sanity for multiple projects now and I love it. Creating schemas, edit them in live mode, modify them with react and simple to explain to an product owner who has to modify data in the cms, creating queries with live feedback to check if they are correct, good documentation for groq and fast system apis. I would recommend every developer for sanity!

What do you dislike about Sanity?

They only downside of sanity is, that they havent got an vosualized build tool to create complex groq queries. Its and try and error until it works. But honestly, its developers job to create them.

What problems is Sanity solving and how is that benefiting you?

Its does solve the problem to create any database on a server which is available everytime. Sanity does this job for me, so the only thing I have to do, is fetching data from the api. It reduces so much time and headache, awesome.

"Easy to use and to implement"
What do you like best about Sanity?

Sanity has a great documentation making it a breeze to implement. The community built around the tool is amazing, there are tons of plugins for everything.

What do you dislike about Sanity?

Creating new schemas is very verbose, so it might not be as friendly for beginners.

What problems is Sanity solving and how is that benefiting you?

Sanity is used for pretty much all content in a large, multilingual website I work in daily.

"The MVP of all CMS"
What do you like best about Sanity?

Sanity is very much powerful. I like the fact is it can be heavily customized. It is blazing fast yet so simple. Great user base and community with generous offers!

What do you dislike about Sanity?

The rich text editor could be improved design-wise. I would love to see other UI improvements and newer plugins getting implemented inside sanity. That's it!!!

What problems is Sanity solving and how is that benefiting you?

Sanity is very powerful. I used it as a Headless CMS, and it worked as per my requirements. It's very fast and responsive. Also the GROQ query language is simple yet powerful. I just love it. I prefer it instead of GraphQL.

"Best DX"
What do you like best about Sanity?

Sanity is helpful to rapidly create complex document schemas and then iterate through different version of them. The DX is very, very comfortable; the performances are top-notch.

What do you dislike about Sanity?

I think that right now, the 3 features that it misses most are: - The absence of schema validation when using the API; - the cost of additional users; - possibilities of custom roles for plans lower than Enterprise;

What problems is Sanity solving and how is that benefiting you?

Complex CMS situations and difficult content management situations with thousands of documents and lot of relationships.

"Working to integrate sanity into agency workflow. Working on personal smaller projects"
What do you like best about Sanity?

The simplified content author experience. At login content, authors are just given the UI to edit the content of the site and nothing more. Also, the way to customize how that content is organized is through the document lists.

What do you dislike about Sanity?

The initial intuitiveness of saving modal content by pressing the X button on the modal, not a traditional save or confirm button on the modals. The flicker of red fields on some page loads also seems buggy.

What problems is Sanity solving and how is that benefiting you?

Diving deeper into composable content. We have been using similar patterns with other cms's but the ways that you can edit the content authors experience has been eye opening with Sanity

"Amazing possibilities and fantastic community"
What do you like best about Sanity?

The endless opportunity to create studios tailored for each client. Extremely developer friendly and good ux

What do you dislike about Sanity?

It's nothing I really dislike, but I think the content preview could be improved. Webhooks is very good, but could be improved with a header describing action

What problems is Sanity solving and how is that benefiting you?

The main thing is possibility to create complex documents referencing other data. The ability to link data together, is what I love the most
