What started as a haggling page has transformed into a mobile app. A service wants to throw businesses a bone when it comes to dealing with customers, and a parenting app gains some funding from a hospital. Meanwhile, a Facebook-type app for doctors and a mobile app development company also gain funding.

Let’s Barter India, a Facebook-group-turned-app that facilitates haggling among members, has raised an undisclosed amount of funding from Delhi-based Scale Ventures and Crowdinvest’s Sanjay Choudhary.

Founded by Pooja Bhayana and Sahil Dhingra in October, the startup offers Android and iOS apps. It still has a Facebook presence with over 180,000 members in its group.

The Let’s Barter community extends throughout India, with a concentration in Delhi.

CloudCherry

Customer management startup CloudCherry has landed US$6 million in series A funding from Vertex Ventures, Cisco Investments, and IDG Ventures India.

CloudCherry will put the investment toward global expansion, concentrating on the US, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East.

Vinod Muthukrishnan, Vijay R Lakshmanan, Prem K Viswanath, and Nagendra CL founded Cloudcherry, backed by three angels. The startup helps companies measure and modify their customers’ experiences.

Parenting app Parentlane has raised funding from Rohit MA, co-founder and managing director of Cloudnine Hospitals. Rohit made the investment through Capier Investments, his personal funding arm.

“We realize that today’s city-educated millennial generation needs precise and personalized information related to their child as they become parents,” Rohit said in a statement.
