There's no argument that on a console, unless the game is really shitty, you have a guarentee that everything will work smoothly. However I do think your experience was more bad luck, probably both on the hardware side of things and software, then a representation on how gaming on a PC is like. The only time I've personally had an input problem on a PC is when I was using a mouse I bought from the dollar store, I got what I paid for.
Also if PC is the only way to absolutely play Warframe and if you haven't tried already it won't hurt to try to plug in a DS3 or 4 and see if it works, from my experience it's fairly responsive.

I tried plugging in a DS3 before but it never responded, not even now. I saw somewhere about a specific program that helps the controller to run on a PC, and not even that helped at all. I remember some drivers being installed when plugging the controller for the first time. But nothing happened after that.

You need the motionjoy program. The DS3 doesn't actually jsut work when you plug it in. All it is installing is drivers to let it charge from your PC USB ports. But then you do need to configure it to fake a 360 controller. And sometimes it just messes up. I've had it just not want to connect. And to do wireless. You need certain bluetooth receveir brands. So you're forced to stay wired most of the time. And if you do snyc by wireless. You need a second DS3.
Or you're gonna need to keep re-pairing it to the PS3. And you'll also activate the PS3, if you're in range. Because you need to hit the home button to turn the controller on first, in wired mode. And if you do use your wireless bluetooth. Motionjoy alters it and won't let you connect to any other bluetooth device. So if you share files to your phone or something. You're SOL.

I have used MotionInJoy before, and it never worked. I even tried to use it on an older computer, but still nothing. I'm even trying to use Scp Driver as an alternative, and still nothing. I think this is bad luck like Leadified mentioned. And my laptop is pretty decent (8GB RAM, 750GB HDD, Intel Core i7 2670QM @ 2.20 GHz, 64-bit OS) except the graphics card I can't change. I wouldn't mind that the controller is wired all the time, but I'd like that it turns on when it's plugged on the computer.

That's really bizzare. It's gotta be some weird combo of your hardware just failing it for some reason. That sucks.
