Businesses don't want a GUI per se, they want something that works OOTB,
or at least after a simple configuration process.  And they often want
non-sysadmins to be able to do certain tasks that we might think about
as sysadmin tasks.  Adding new users (employees) for example.


BTW: GUI tools shouldn't run on a server, but on the admin's (or
pseudo-admin's) desktop.  Using a secure connection to the server, of
course.
