I think you have a misunderstanding of the role of both 'network' and 'NetworkManager' services.

'network' service is clearly better for server usage as it is a true startup daemon that doesn't require any user interaction.

'NetworkManager' at present provides for userland control which means that it isn't all that useful until a user logs in.
