Autoconf only does Make. - CMake has a clearer syntax, m4/autotools is very convoluted - CMake is very fast - CMake is supported natively in Qt Creator in the QT SDK, and is used by many other KDE/QT as well as other open source applications. Many people discourage the use of autotools for new projects.
