I still capture a reference image since we add office into our image. ConfigMgr doesn't patch office when you apply the update list to the WIM. I cut about an hour off of the image time by having office updates inside of the WIM.

Every few months I’ll go and recreate my image from a reference VM. I just run out of time to do it any more often. I also put very little into our actual image. The task sequence handles all the software installs.

Some prefer to just capture reference images. Being that a bad patch could be removed from a WIM if it was determined to be bad, I’d like to hear some feedback on why some choose to still stay away from this method, and stay with reference image capture.
