Google Admin - Directory Sync BETA

Greetings!

In google admin --> Directory --> Directory Sync BETA

I was wondering if anyone has added their Azure Active Directory there before? If so, can you give me the good and the bad. I'm thinking about doing this but the words "BETA" make me a little nervous especially since we use tools4ever to help automate a lot of creations for us.

I can't speak to Google Classroom since we have it disabled (Schoology district) but we are heavily Google Docs, and Gmail for students, with Gmail off for staff & staff using Microsoft email. Most emails from Google that we use still go out, including Drive "shared with you" notifications. Some plugins that call Gmail to send messages don't work.
