The Arduino is amazing, powerful, and has a huge development community behind it. The scale of the development community is its biggest asset, as it means a vast collection of libraries for specific components (keypads, displays, etc.) If you are about to get into microcontrollers, I highly suggest picking up an Arduino (or 10) /Chris I’ve worked with the Make Controller and the Arduino quite a bit.
