open2save – iSeva’s ex-founders launch online retail venture
Bangalore-based AeNwis e-Systems, a multi-channel Target Marketing and Promotions Management service (started by ex-iSeva founders) has announced the launch of ‘open2save’, an aggregator of all deals and 
discounts available in the retail market.
The service has been launched in Bangalore, Mumbai and Pune and open2save already has a good number of deals available on the site (from over 800 retailers).
Give it a try and share your first impressions (we will review this product next week, since it needs comparative study).
The current site is completely different from their first version (have known about this venture since nov’ 07) and from what I know, open2save guys are building a very aggressive field force (and are relying on offline deals, rather than writing a simple aggregator).
