As a few other people have mentioned, I find R to be the easiest tool for this job, specifically the forecast package [0]. I had to use this package for an applied econometrics course in college a few years ago, and I have been using it ever since. I find the syntax to be more straightforward than comparable libraries in Python. I also assume that this library (and other libraries in R) offer higher quality models and results than their counterparts in Python, but this is just an assumption.
