Focus stacking lens focus changes or macro rail?

Taking stacking sequences up to 1:1 with a macro lens what are the pros and cons of:

1.  Using Helicon Remote and letting the software control the focus shift

or

2. Using a WeMacro rail (or similar) to move the camera position

Option 1 is much simpler does it give as good a result as option 2?
