When in Rome... If on Windows, I'd say go with IIS, especially if you have someone familiar with it. And, if you'll be interacting with MSSQL/etc, then I'd recommend as well - the Web Platform Installer works well, aside from a couple of gotchas (which at some point I'll document). My issue was that I was so used to Apache. After working through some things, IIS has proved stable and useful. Another idiom: don't put all your eggs in one basket.
