Prosper IE Extension Review

Retireme99 has developed and maintains a Internet Explorer plugin for Prosper.  I first started using in Feb 07.  Being a standing order bidder at first I was sceptical that it would be useful for me…  Well, anytime I use Firefox with Prosper I miss the plugin.  I don’t even realize some of my favorite things are this plugin and not Prosper. 

I am never really sure which of the 2 sites you are supposed to go to get it so here is a link to both: Prosper Internet Explorer Plugin Site 1 or Prosper Internet Explorer Plugin Site 2.

Here are some of my favorite features:

  • Favorites List by Borrower - if a borrower relists you will easily find the new listing
  • Similar Loans -  finds loans that are late that are similar to the listing you are reviewing
  • group performance
  • Bid Details - if I find a listing that has under a 100 bids that raises red flags… I like market demand for a listing
  • hot lists… finds the listings that have the most action over a time period
  • Quick Market Analysis Links
  • Notes - in case I don’t remember why I don’t like a listing or do

If you are a manual bidder this plugin is a must have.  If you use standing orders then you can get along without the plugin… but why?

My apologizes to Retireme99, this review was a long time coming.
