Axis is an open source Java web services platform. It can be used to develop SOAP-based web services and clients. Generally speaking, Axis is an alternative for the JWSDP.

Axis has a large user base, which leads to better chances of getting help in forums like ours.

Open source products often implement certain "bleeding edge" features before commercial alternatives. Without knowledge of the recent versions of JWSDP, I can't really say which features Axis would provide that are missing from JWSDP.
