The thing is that i tried one option of each and it seems like the damned ones would raise up and be neutral to you but would never follow you thus they act as stationary guards. The animate corpse option just raises the dead with loyalty only to the necromancer no one else. The  night zombie would have full memories retained thus would still think as they did before they died.

Where to find the right answers for your questions ?
Well often it is a search in dwarf fortress to find answers and with the help of forummembers. 
I remember ( correct?) me that undead creature can visit a fortress, but can be used as mercenary ?

@guard123 is this an adventurer mode question?  Where you're playing a character that's a necromancer and you're raising things?  As opposed to fortress mode?

Details about a necromancer can be found https://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/DF2014:Necromancer
and

But if you don't find anything in the forum searches, then it may be time for !!Science!! and you can then tell us the differences.
