To expand on what Pongsathorn mentioned: If you -clone- a VM, the GUID/etc also gets copied. This will come back to bite you down the road if SCCM or any other package dependent on unique GUID/etc things is used in a management role. Deploying via a Template is effectively the same as installing a brand-new preconfigured VM each time.
TEMPLATE DEPLOYMENT A clone is an exact image of a system. VM clones are not suited for mass deployment of virtual machines A template is a more generalized image that is intended for multiple uses. Templates act as a baseline image for a VM. While cloned systems can be turned on, templates cannot. They are used for deployment only.
