About PC Revive
A Brief History About PC Revive
PC Revive was founded by Evan Otis in 2016. He became fascinated with the world of computer repair at the young age of 9.
With guidance from his brother and uncle, he spent weekends taking devices apart, learning how every part fit and why it failed. By high school, he was repairing systems for classmates and neighbors, exploring hardware upgrades, operating systems, and small-office networks.
In 2013, at age 15, Evan launched his first repair venture. He balanced homework with service calls, built a base of loyal customers, and learned the value of clear communication and honest estimates.
After graduation, he expanded that effort into PC Revive—a local company focused on dependable repairs, straightforward advice, and practical technology support for homes and small businesses.
Meet the Founder
Evan believes computer repair should feel simple and stress-free. He keeps the team focused on three things:
- Accuracy: diagnose the real cause, not the symptom.
- Clarity: explain options in plain language before any work begins.
- Care: protect data, respect your time and space, and leave systems better than we found them.
Certifications & Skills
Evan maintains industry credentials to keep skills sharp and relevant:
- CompTIA A+ – a widely recognized certification that validates troubleshooting across laptops, desktops, mobile devices, operating systems, networking basics, and peripherals.
- Microsoft Office certification – hands-on knowledge of Word, Excel, and Outlook helps resolve everyday productivity issues for customers who rely on these tools.
Training at PC Revive is ongoing. We review new hardware platforms, security updates, data-backup strategies, and repair methods so our team can support today’s devices with confidence.
