Well,i won't use Vmware until they add snapshot feature in Player.
 
But you can copy/replace the VM Folders inside documents to revert a VM, i did this for years without
big issues.

You just need to remember to not rename anything and to click replace.

For sure VMware player may take a long time or depends on the developers on implementing snapshots feature; since their main flagship is VMware Workstation that provides not just complete feature but also its more accessibility and enhancement in security
