What your company needs to do is hire a Unix administrator.
If you just want reports on performace, any decent Unix admin can do it with the available tools within the O.S., regardless of the number of servers you have. If you have Sun servers, Sun has an application called Sun Management Console, which gives you a pretty GUI for what is basically the output of vmstat, iostat, etc. I'm sure HP and AIX have something similar.

If what you are looking for is high level fault management, then I would recommend Netcool by Micromuse. Expensive licenses, but it would monitor anything and give you real time fault management capabilities.

You want a small tool. You also want it to be GUI-based. These requirements are mutually exclusive.

And we keep telling you, there isn't such a manufactured tool for merely looking at performance stats and saving them in a .CSV, since any Unix OS already has all the tools you need for what you want to see and do. That you don't know how to use them and you want Unix to behave like Windows for your convenience, well, that we can't help.
