Default differences in plastisol transfer vs. screenprint

I was thinking of ordering 100 plastisol transfers and then applying with my heat press. Is there any advantages/disadvantages (such as quality or durability) between using heat press or actually having them screenprinted. I might be wrong but i figured the costs were not far apart. Thanks for input.

The plasitsol transfers will look like screen print.The advantage to transfers is you can press as needed and not tie up as much in inventory cost up front. ... JB
