Computer shop opens in Moraine

After being in business nearly 10 years now, the local computer and IT services business, On Spot Techs, held a grand opening of their first public storefront and shop on Wednesday. Business hours are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. It is located at 4732 S. Dixie Dr. behind the Frisch’s Big Boy near the busy intersection of 741 (North Springboro Pike, South Dixie Drive and Kettering Boulevard).

On Spot Techs was a bootstrapped venture started by Eric Geier in February of 2012 in hopes of helping others better utilize technology. Geier brought a wealth of computer and IT expertise to the company from prior experience at several national tech support companies and international consulting firms. He also is a freelance tech writer of nine computer and IT books and has contributed to many other publications, including a Tech Advice column that currently runs in the Dayton Daily News every other Monday.

For the past decade, On Spot Techs was operated out of Geier’s home — first in Fairborn and most recently in Vandalia — so only on-site services were provided at customer homes and small businesses throughout the Dayton and Springfield areas. But with this new location in Moraine, customers will now have the option to drop-off and pick-up devices in the shop or make in-store appointments for one-onone help. There will also be new and refurbished computers for sale, plus accessories for computers and mobile devices.

On Spot Techs also offers Wi-Fi services for larger businesses nation-wide under the tradename of Wi-Fi Surveyors. They provide RF site surveys for designing or troubleshooting large Wi-Fi networks in office buildings, plants, warehouses, and other venues. One recent project was with King County in the Seattle, Washington, area, designing the Wi-Fi network for their public transport bases.
