We'd outgrown our WordPress setup as our events grew and became more complex. Moving to a modern, future-proof headless solution using Sanity and Next.js means we move much faster with new initiatives. It only took two days to launch a new website for our first US conference!

Sanity has set the new standard for managing content

Being experienced with CMSes like Contentful, Craft, Wordpress, Strapi, when using Sanity it feels like most of the annoying aspects of all those platforms have been considered and solved...What's most *surprisingly* great about Sanity is how thorough it is in its approach – from its well-documented developer experience to its minimalistic and user-friendly user interface.

Working with WordPress for 10 years, migrated to Sanity and never looked back

We love the control Sanity provides to make a custom integration with other JAMstack software. We have built custom integrations with Mailchimp, Vimeo, and NextJS. It makes for a tailored experience for our Clients, who almost all have transitioned away Wordpress. Not to mention we love groq.

Very powerful and highly customizable headless CMS

Sanity has nailed what a headless/composable CMS should be. It gives us all the features we could imagine wanting from our content layer, without ever getting in our way. The fact that the Studio can be embedded into our own Next.js application and customized at will using React opens up a world of opportunities to use this not only as a replacement for our old CMS (WordPress) but for all kinds of other content workflows we haven't even imagined yet.
