COI File Review

Depends

Should I use COI File?

Simple COI tracking software for property managers and contractors - coifile.com

· 5 days ago

Buy if you manage roughly 10-50 vendor certificates and want cheap automation over a spreadsheet. Skip if you need system integrations, audited security, or a vendor with independent reviews.

Vendor-count cliff: 11 vendors doubles your bill from $39 to $89/mo
