What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The recent CrowdStrike issue affected most systems. That said, 98% of the time, there are no major outages.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Scaling up or down is not a problem since we can choose the respective region and host it there, even get our own private cloud if required.

How are customer service and support?

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

When considering costs, having an enterprise subscription with Microsoft Azure can be more economical than other specific SSO identity providers, as it comes with additional MFA and SSO features.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

I evaluated other solutions like Okta and CyberArk before choosing Microsoft Entra ID Protection. CyberArk stands out with different features yet at a higher cost.

What other advice do I have?

I'd rate the solution nine out of ten.
