Necromancers have splash attack with curse effect, high initiative, high attack and defense. They have plague ability which is very powerful and can summon some cannon fodder from corpses. They also get you free Zombies which you can use as cannon fodder in battles.
Ghosts and Cursed Ghosts with their 50% phisical resistance and ability to raise their numbers are simply "enough said".
Vampires and Ancient Vampires, as in all games in existence, have good stats, ressurect themselves and again, "enough said"
Skeleton Archers is high damage and low leadership, and is simply better then other low lvl archers.
Death Knights are just awesome unit. You can't compare it to his "good" counterpart Knight.
Bone Dragons are good like all dragons nothing to say here, probably easiest to ressurect with eviln; Deals poison damage which is good vs some other good units which are phisical or fire resistant.

Cursed Ghosts add troops to themselves too quickly, though. It's pretty much guaranteed you'll lose control.
Also, Undead have a slight disadvantage versus demons, and an even bigger disadvantage against themselves. There are also spells and effects specifically designed to destroy them. However, there is very little chance of seeing these things actually used against you, especially since you're not supposed to have undead in this game in the first place.
