It depends on your expectations of "easy".
When compared to consumer router devices, then no.
When compared to configuring enterprise networking kit using the CLI ... well ... perhaps. Mikrotik does have some short cuts / UI features. But if you want to do anything vaguely complex, you're going to need to put some serious time into getting your head around the way the system processes packets.
If getting to grips with how packets flow through different subsystems in your router doesn't really appeal (check out https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:Packet_Flow https://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:Packet_Flow) then there are better, simpler options which are still powerful.
