M7 Health vs Wardflow

M7 Health is an AI-powered workforce operations platform for nurse and staff scheduling at hospitals and health systems. It forecasts staffing demand, builds first-pass schedules around staff preferences and clinical needs, and auto-balances schedules. The platform creates open shifts, routes them to eligible staff, and supports floating staff and central staffing across units. Real-time coverage views help teams identify staffing gaps before premium labor is needed. Nurses can use Android and iOS apps to view schedules, set preferences, pick up shifts, and request swaps; a web browser also works on shared unit computers. M7 integrates with payroll, timekeeping, ERP, and EMR systems while existing payroll and HR systems remain the system of record. Its team handles implementation, described as typically four weeks for integration, configuration, training, and go-live support. M7 states SOC 2 Type II certification and offers U.S.-based support by text, phone, or email with a dedicated customer success manager. Pricing is available on request.

Wardflow is a staff scheduling system for hospitals and clinics. It creates rosters, coordinates workforce coverage, and manages leave, day-off, and shift-swap requests for doctors, nurses, pharmacists, physiotherapists, lab scientists, and administrators. Its scheduling pipeline applies leave blocks, minimum rest periods, and shift-transition rules before assignments, then evaluates workload fairness over a rolling 28-day window using night shifts, total hours, and weekends. Requests receive real-time approvals, with submissions, decisions, swaps, and overrides recorded with timestamps and actors. Staff can record attendance through an installable mobile PWA, while administrators use a web workspace with separate role views. Rosters download as PDF or Excel files by department, date range, or profession. Wardflow offers Android, iOS, and web access, but no native mobile apps. It is paid software with no free plan; pricing is on request and a free trial is available.
