Closed loop position control in CAN

We’ve used CAN in previous years and like it. This year we plan on using closed loop limit switches and position control. We’re unsure whether to use an encoder or potentiometer based position control. Does anyone have any experience and advice on which to choose? Which is more accurate? Easier to use? Any difference in tuning the PID? Thanks for any help.
