Will there be any noticeable differences between Package installation vs Replication (At very first time of website publishing except the time consuming)

Will there be any noticeable differences between Package Installation vs Replication. At very first time of website publishing after the completion of development which one will be good to consider either package installation or Replication.?

Hi Var,

End results would be same unless you have forgotton something to replicate Or package filter missing required resource include. 

I would recommend create a package & then activate the package so that it will be clean, fast & easy to debug. No need to install package on each publish.   Activating the package pushes to all publish instance & install automatically along with flushing dispatcher cache. 

Thanks,
Sham
