Unfortunately no geolocation services are 100% accurate; in particular the accuracy is also less for any free service, paid geolocation services are updated more regularly. For the majority of users this tool will give you a rough location and details of which ISP they are with. I find this info is particularly useful when dealing with possible spammers - it's a quick way to check what country a user is based in.
