Yep, Sharpcap will work.

That said, there are some other options these days.

1. NINA with it's three point polar alignment. It's free. It doesn't need a view of the south celestial pole.
2. Polemaster Adapter. Buckeyestargazer make one that fits into a finder shoe. Geoptik have one that attaches to a vixen or losmandy bar. I have both and both work fine.
3. ASI AIR.. same as the three point polar alignment from NINA (in fact, they used the same code) but you'll need an ASI AIR
