Since you are just starting to get into making it easy to run remote commands, I feel obligated to point out that the best solution, although not a pure gui, is to use tmux. Google for many tutorials or see tmux intro.

The nice thing about tmux, is that it will display correctly over a ssh connection, giving you a multipane window, each of which can run different commands. You can also easily put the commands in the background, detached, and come back hours later to reattach to it. A very professional approach. BTW, you can also run mc "Midnight Commander" over ssh, this comes in very handy, and between tmux and mc, you may have a simple, secure solution.
