First, Ardent Censer no longer gives move speed to the whole team. That was a glitch and has been fixed.

Second, you have to keep in mind that attack speed isn't particularly good on every single champion, which is why not every champion builds it. Also, you won't be able to have a 100% upkeep time on everyone unless your entire team is constantly huddled around you, which they shouldn't be, and Sona needs to be constantly moving around the team to apply her buffs.

Third, there are much better items for those stats, such as Mikaels, which gives more than enough mana regen as well as CDR, and is necessary in almost every single game. Twin Shadows also gives 10% CDR and twice as much AP as Censer. Considering this item isn't really super useful until after the team starts grouping, you should already have Mikael's so you don't really need the mana, and you really need some sort of defensive item before getting this. This is mainly a late game item, and by then you should have 40% CDR already, or pretty close to it.

I'm not saying you should never get this item on Sona. In the right team comps, this item can be pretty powerful, and Sona can use it more easily than most other supports, but the item is far from being a core item on her.
