If N1MM was truly easy to learn, it wouldn't need the above disclaimer.
I've used N1MM for years. My opinion (YMMV):
Is it easy to install, configure and learn. No.
Is it easy to use? No.
Is it well documented? No.
Is it intuitive? No.
It is a serious program for the serious contester
who is willing to invest the time and effort in it.
It does have the advantage of being free, but unfortunately, your time
isn't free.
If you want easy to learn, look elsewhere. For example, N3FJP.
