HelloPeter has weaknesses.

I often refer to HelloPeter when considering doing business with a new supplier. I have come to realise that HelloPeter does not give enough information to actually judge whether an entity is good or bad to deal with. Let me give an example. If an entity has had 100 reviews and they are all bad you would immediately decide that they are bad to deal with. This is entirely true if the reviews are based on 100 transactions, however if the review is based on 10 million transactions, one would be very safe in deciding that the entity can fully trusted. Unfortunately number of transactions is very difficult to access but the number of customers would enable the user to come up with a far better evaluation. Despite this weakness HelloPeter is still an excellent source of information.
