The community generously provides courses for those learning (V)JASS without any programming background: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/jass-class-702/

If you are making a map for your own fun and it's a small project, then using GUI will feel more intuitive and be quicker.

On the other hand, if you want to do more advanced stuff and a large project, learning (V)JASS is ultimately the better option, but the tradeoff is that it might take a much longer time to learn and use.

The GUI is just a graphical representation of JASS, so they are the same. There is probably some overhead to represent JASS as GUI, but this likely is not present in the actual map you play, only in the WE itself.
