RFID is preferred when the item is in a less controlled environment and when the item is more valuable and/or more difficult to replace if you ever lose it. I think this is why law firms like RFID for IP files but it is not needed for all client files. (unless you have money to burn)
I have found that often you need to integrate technology and traditional processes vs pick one over the other. Using barcode, RFID and document imaging together will allow you to align barcodes for the easy items to track, RFID for the the exceptions and document imaging to scan the most oftened referred to documents eliminating the need to pull the hard copy most of the time while getting a copy of the pertinent document set.

Subject: Re: Does anyone in the group utilize RFID technology in their active f ile rooms?
I would like to ask a broader question:
When is RFID a preferred solution to bar codes? As a technology expert and
confessed nerd, I think RFID is "sexy", bit I have learned to resist those
urges. I have an opinion, but I wonder how others view it.
Interested in responses, but I would ask FileTrail to remain silent. I feel
I've heard enough sales pitches for the moment.
