Designing with sensors

This last year our robot had some issues with rotation sensors that I would would like to avoid this coming year. Last year we used some magnetic continuous potentiometers to determine our arm posistion. The issue became these pots had a dead zone and then would restart on the other side of the voltage. Looking back on it they were probably not the use of the sensor. My question is what sensors OTHER THAN Versa planetary encoders do people use for position track on arms and other moving parts and how do you integrate them in to your design?
