Sanity CMS development FAQs

Questions about CMS fit, content modelling, migrations, previews, front ends, cost, and ownership.

Still have a question?

Fit & planning

Is Sanity the right CMS for our website?

Sanity is a strong fit when content needs custom structure, relationships, reusable modules, multiple destinations, or an editorial experience tailored to the team. A simpler website may not need that flexibility.

How much does Sanity development cost?

Cost depends on content complexity, custom Studio work, preview requirements, migration volume, user roles, integrations, and the website or application consuming the content.

Build & integration

Can you migrate our existing CMS content to Sanity?

Yes. We audit and map the existing content before writing migration tooling, then validate documents, relationships, assets, URLs, metadata, and editorial workflows.

What front ends can you connect to Sanity?

We commonly connect Sanity to Astro and Next.js, but its APIs can serve other suitable websites and applications. The choice depends on the experience, rendering, preview, and hosting requirements.

Launch & ownership

Can editors preview changes before publishing?

Yes. We can configure draft previews and visual editing where the chosen front end and workflow support them, then train editors on the finished publishing process.

Will we control the Sanity project and content?

Yes. Your organisation owns the production project, datasets, schemas, source code, and access, with exportable structured content and a documented handover.

    We had an outstanding experience working with Pinecone Agency on our recent Webflow project, with Richard as our point of contact. The team was fairly priced, demonstrated excellent communication throughout the process, and delivered everything on time. Richard's professionalism and reliability made the entire experience seamless, and we're thrilled with the final result. Highly recommend Pinecone Agency for anyone needing a top-notch Webflow project!

    Richard and his team have been essential partners for our organization. Not only did they rebuild our site to match our updated branding, they have implemented custom code solutions and been creative partners on new web projects. They work quickly, efficiently, and provide immense value to our team at RSA. I am grateful we found Pinecone Agency!

    I'm a sole trader who built my own site using Webflow — but I was concerned about how that would impact my SEO when I transitioned from my old site. Richard at Pinecone helped me sail what I expected to be a turbulent sea as if it was a calm lake with a pleasant breeze at our backs. Generous with his knowledge, he outlined all the steps I'd have to take, explaining clearly the process at each juncture and then jumping in when either my lack of time or technical know-how got the better of me. A true partner who places the needs of the customer first and foremost in the process, and is as personable as he is knowledgable, I couldn't recommend him enough. He's a keeper, for sure.

    Building a website with Pinecone felt more like a team project than a client-contractor relationship. They listened to our ideas, collaborated on every decision, and gave us an outstanding final product. Would definitely use them again on the next project.

    Very professional and detail oriented. Made sure to walk through the process so we learned and understood what we were doing and why. I would absolutely hire them again to design and build my website.

    I reached out to Pinecone Agency late last year to discuss building a new website for my company, Southside Engineering. From the very start, they knew their stuff and were professional and easy to work with. They captured our brand perfectly and made a website that not only looks great but we're now getting more visits and leads through it! I highly recommend them.

    I have been running a hair salon in Portishead, UK for the past 5 years and I can't say enough about how much my experience with Pinecone Agency has enhanced that. They designed an all-new website to better showcase what we do here at ABHairDesign and we are thrilled not only with its appearance but because it's generated plenty more business as well. Since working together on this project several months ago, our inquiries from clients who found us through Google searches or local advertising channels saw a massive increase. I highly recommend them!

    We first worked with Richard in 2019 to develop and design our website, and have seen consistent SEO results, and consistent quality service from Pinecone. They are super easy to communicate with, and great at coming back to us with the specialised requests and additions we have.
