RFID File Tracking

[mactoolsix]

We are looking for an inexpensive (if possible) Radio Frequency File Identification system. With about a dozen tax prepares & reviewers and over 1,000 client folders, we inevitably misplace a file or two during tax season. We keep almost all the documents on an eFile system, however each client does have a paper file for Tax and another for Financial Management.

We have found several on the internet, however none have pricing and hard to tell which systems are reliable. We would appreciate any recommendations of a system that has proven itself.
Thanks,
Mike

Consider a bar code system?

RFID sounds like overkill unless you expect client files to routinely "walk out the door."
