Legacy OpenStudio vs. EnergyPlus vs. OpenStudio Suite

If the model is first created in Revit and imported as gbXML to SketchUp Make, Is there a difference if we perform analysis directly inside Legacy OpenStudio plugin in SketchUp or export it to IDF and perform the analysis inside EnergyPlus, or even use the OpenStudio Suite? Can you please guide me on the differences of these three?
