The best experience we made is with .NET. Easy to develop and deploy.
Further it supports document/literal (important for WS-I BP 1.0 compliancy)
what Axis still doesn't (bugs).
If you don't like Microsoft and .NET you can also take a look to the
opensource project Mono which has migrated .NET to Linux. Novell is
supporting this project:
http://www.go-mono.com/

Anyway, keep an eye on the BP 1.0 for interoperability. You have to add
some additional code to be BP 1.0 compliant as handling soap headers and
return a soap exception if you don't understand it (MUST).
There are tools available at WS-I to test whether your web service is
compliant.

I've had luck with nuSoap for PHP and gSoap for C.   A friend likes
ZSI for Python (
