Backburner Web Monitor

[Devin Johnston]

Is anyone here familiar with the Backburner web monitor program, we're trying to figure out if it would be better to use this application or just RDP into the manager to control jobs? Since this program can run on a web browser I think when using a smart phone this would be an easier way to control and monitor jobs. The problem is that according to the documentation the web application will only work with Linux and Mac OS as of the 2011 release, I can't find anything on the 2012 release. I also don't understand why this thing won't work with a Windows OS since the freaking software is all Windows based. Here's the user PDF explaining its function.
