Boot Camp comes with your Macbook for free, and it allows you to install Windows alongside macOS, so you can choose which of them to boot on startup.
On the other hand, only one operating system will be able to run at the same time, so you will have to reboot between them depending on which apps you need to run at the moment.
Another possible drawback is fact that Windows and macOS use different file systems, and you will not be able to open Mac files on Windows or vice versa unless you install specific third-party drives for it. That is not a problem when using virtual machines.
Virtual machines allow you to install and open Windows 7 in a window on your Mac desktop. With virtual machines you run both macOS and Windows at the same time, which is handy if you want to open a single Windows program alongside your Mac applications. Parallels Desktop is very intuitive and easy-to-use for regular computer users.
The app will configure everything for you, even download Windows 7 or utilize the one you already downloaded via Boot Camp. You can open Windows in a separate window including a full screen mode , or you can turn on Coherence mode. Try as I may, rEFInd was not the answer, although just like Bootcamp, it is a part of the final solution. All I got was a horizontal cursor and nothing more.

Click all the checkboxes and let Bootcamp do its thing. When it reboots, press the alt button until the boot manager comes up and boot back into OS X.
The trial version of VMware is more than enough for this task so you can get it done free either way. This will bring up a disk info window where you can find the Disk Identifier — make a note of it.
Then click Continue. Now, select the operating system you are installing, click Continue and select "Create a new virtual disk" from the next menu. Click Continue and select "Customize Settings" from the bottom of the next screen; this will let you specify the location for the virtual machine. I selected my desktop for easy access — you can safely delete it once this is all over anyway.
Finish up and close VMware. Once ready, type "cd " add a space at the end and drag the icon of your virtual machine into the terminal and press Enter. The first number 0 would be X and the second 4 would be Y. Click on the icon for your virtual machine on the Desktop and click "Show Package Contents". The next step is to edit the "Windows 7 x Open it in your text editor and search for the line starting with "scsi0.
Then search for "scsi Open VMware and start the virtual machine.
