Linux users, do you admin your server manually or do you use any web interface tool? After getting the third server of the day running I think I need a tool to make the work faster. Do you have any recommendation? Cpanel ist pretty neat but sadly not free

    if you want to get professional somehow, then investigate in looking at Puppet, together with Spacewalk (and its decessors) or Ansible, Chef...

    I am using Webmin for some stuff as its more easy with UI than over SSH with Putty. E.g. file manager (with tabs), Uploading files, Changing multiple config, Selective updating, Handling MySQL Server

    Command line only. As mentioned before, look at an automation tool. We use ansible.

    Terminal only, I don't want gui's if it's not necessary.

    Still want to learn ansible or puppet or something similar :)

    Puppet is the answer to everything.

    Or no not everything because that's 42, but you get the point

    Terminal for the servers I control.
    CPanel for my vps (coz it came with it)

    It depends. I use both DirectAdmin and a self-built panel that autoconfigures from a database with Python scripts. Both would do what you want. Also, cPanel is crappy bloatware - if you need to use a control panel, never use cPanel.
