no, apache is difficult as you have no GUI ingerface to control apache, (only black scren of DOS). BUT it is very stable, as if you know apache handeling, no wb server is better than apache, though still IIS is very popular but it covers 23% of web servers, as compared to Apache @ 70%

IIS is easier, as u have to just clicks clicks.
