Reviewer scorecard
“Mature API, excellent SDKs, and the content model is flexible. The enterprise choice for headless CMS.”
“EAS Build, OTA updates, and the managed workflow eliminate the worst parts of mobile development. Indispensable.”
“Expensive for what it is. Sanity and Payload offer better DX at lower cost. Only justified for enterprise compliance needs.”
“Expo has matured from toy to production platform. The config plugins and custom dev clients removed the old limitations.”
“The editor experience is functional but uninspiring. Sanity's customizable studio is more pleasant to work in.”
“Expo is making React Native the default for mobile. Universal apps (web + mobile) from one codebase is the future.”
