Is there any reason to buy Playa over the relationship module? I have a fairly complex relationship setup and need something to assist. Playa looks good but does it offer anything the native relationship module does not?

This is why I buy Playa, from the relationship field docs :
Currently it is not possible to get the parents of a relationship field that is inside of a Grid field. You can also not use Relationships inside of a Grid field that does not store Channel data.

yes the parents of a relationship is something that would be very useful to me. Commented Apr 1, 2014 at 7:56

1I made an add-on for doing that. IMO, awesome as they were back in the day, there's now no reason to buy Playa or Matrix. github.com/thisisjamessmith/ee-grid-relationship-parents Commented Aug 12, 2016 at 13:28
