From Review to Revenue: How First-Party AWS Marketplace Reviews Drive Growth

In AWS Marketplace, trust is the deciding factor. Buyers want more than product specs or vendor promises. They want authentic insights from peers who have implemented the solution, faced real challenges, and delivered measurable outcomes.
That is why AWS designated PeerSpot as the sole provider of first-party reviews in AWS Marketplace. These reviews are not generic feedback. They are verified proof points that help buyers make confident decisions and help sellers accelerate growth inside AWS Marketplace.
What Are First-Party AWS Marketplace Reviews?
First-party AWS Marketplace reviews are tied directly to confirmed AWS Marketplace purchases. Buyers know the voices they are reading come from real customers with verified experience.
Unlike reviews on external sites, these reviews appear directly within AWS Marketplace product listings at the critical moment of evaluation. They provide detail on deployment, business outcomes, and lessons learned, giving buyers the context they need to choose with confidence.
