For an average Indian, Computer Science introduced in school makes them work their way through a lifetime. Learning obviously never stops, but the basics find their way to a more intermediate and advanced learning experience by their own hit-and-trial methods of surfing and exploring. However, for the non-millennials, women, and the elderly, computers might be a tricky business. Something as simple as booking tickets or checking their account might require assistance.
To make things easy for this segment, two siblings along with their friend decided on changing things for good. Their platform even includes simple explainer videos even in Hindi to cater to the masses. The following article will talk all about them, how they began what they are doing now, and how it is making a difference!
What is Netsaar all about?
With their head office in Indore, Netsaar is the brainchild of siblings – Monish Khemani, and Ginni Khemani, alongside their close friend Khanak Gupta. The main objective of the company is to educate the newcomers, elderly, and mothers so they would be better equipped at using the internet.
With a vision to make Internet browsing so easy and quick that anyone – even people without proper prior experience can glide through and work their way around it, Netsaar’s creators are providing a platform for everyone who is not Internet savvy. And it doesn’t end here. They’ve branched out to content development and video production in the field of online tutorials and travel advice, with clients like Dell Inc.
Their contribution includes driving the Aarambh initiative for Dell, which includes teaching computers to mothers and children. Sahara India Pariwar is another client, whose ‘Edunguru’ initiative for teaching young minds of India, has benefitted from Netsaar’s collaboration.
“Whether it is reading the news, learning a different language or booking tickets, most people tend to do these tasks using conventional methods. They are likely to hire a travel agent to book tickets, a teacher to learn a foreign language and buy a newspaper to read the news. We want to educate and empower people and let them know that a single PC can help them do a multitude of tasks, all from the comfort of home.” – that’s the core idea of Netsaar.
Google is our go-to for anything and everything. From something as random as ‘How much do bees live’, to ‘How to book a train ticket’, we give in to this non-judgmental searching day in, and day out. Netsaar, however, is an internet assistant that provides users with information about all the best websites that benefit you. Even the ones that don’t have themselves listed. For example, certain offline businesses who don’t have an advertising budget, but are efficient, Netsaar curates them in a catalog online and makes them available to its users.
From working for the not so tech-savvy audience and introducing them to the world of the internet, to informing users about sites, and allowing them to do so much more than social media platforms, the company is doing a great job!
The website is all about images and self-explanatory content, barring the text heavy, difficult to understand layouts. Through the years, with their fan base growing, and the changing requirements, the website has reached where it is now.
How can I benefit from Netsaar?
Looking to expand new avenues in their business, the team currently has a total of 7-10 members. Their forte lies in the fact that they go through the websites they list on a regular basis and keep up with the technologies these websites use, thereby making them flawless, and easy to use. They’ve been working through the years to help people who have smartphones but lack the complete technical know-how to get very far while surfing with them, or using them to their rescue.
It doesn’t end here; The Website puts up interactive blog posts daily, monthly videos, regular newsletters and so much more, to keep their customers informed and engaged. Further, these are the same people who are benefiting from this content. Their website makes sure the content that they add up there, is vetted by their team. Only after a thorough process do website names come up.
Talking about competition, there are International websites who are providing a similar platform and are funded too. The fan base to this website is stellar, and they already are a monopolized market, which is always a tough nut to crack. To counter which, Netsaar regularly updates their website and content, making sure that their clients have something to look forward to. The content includes easy to understand demo videos accessible under the “Netsaar Learns” banner. You can also access their YouTube videos here:

We love how Netsaar is centralizing the Internet in a way and bringing accessible options to the Tech-savvy, the son, the elderly and mothers alike.
