I am not in that business but it would seem to me...
virtualmin - companion to webmin fits the bill.
Virtualmin Pro - for those that gotta pay

Virtualmin GPL - for those that won't pay
http://www.webmin.com/vdownload.html
I'm a believer in Jamie Cameron...I'm a long time user of Webmin
The guys is the most responsive developer I have ever seen.
