I think the Strata is the easiest from what I have heard. This exam is more basic, than the A+ exam. I would suggest not chasing a certification based on the difficulty of the exam, but rather I would look at the particular skill level and job role goals you have in mind, and then I would proceed from there. Not everyone needs nor has the A+, or the Network+. The basic progression for a desktop support, or call center role is as follows.
1. A+
2. Network+
3. Microsoft Certified Desktop Support Technician (MCDST) Microsoft Learning: Microsoft Certified Desktop Support Technician (MCDST)

I would have to agree with Dynamik. The 70-620 was so easy it was almost funny.

Toss up between 290 and 620. Although I think 290 was easy because I had just done 270 and they're very similar.

A lot of people may think I'm full of bull, but the CCIP's QoS exam was the easiest I've taken, mostly because I did ISP QoS at my previous job and I'd taken the CCNP's ONT three weeks prior. The ONT and QoS have probably 60% shared material.

Behind that, the CCDA exam was unusually easy. The CCNA Security as well. Both exams were more like sales pitches than technical documentation.
