Microsoft SSO is good solution specially if you are using Microsoft infrastructure it integrates well. Okta is also good option to be considered and can cost you less compared to SSO.

Azure AD SSO (o365) has been fantastic, support for many apps, etc. We reviewed Okta, great solution but didn't provide any additional value for us.
