I really recommend this class of users investigate PC-BSD.  It works
"right out of the box" (all the type of work you are frustrated with
has already been done, and is part of their release process).

To my view, comparing FreeBSD to Ubuntu is apples-to-oranges.  A much
better point of comparison is PC-BSD to Ubuntu.

I can't speak to whether or not PC-BSD will meet all your needs, but
it is much more oriented to users than stock FreeBSD.
