SOAP is great in ways, but a pain in the ass to setup. If you've ever opened up Notepad, and wrote a WSDL file from scratch, you'll know what I mean. Has its benefits though. Once setup, you don't even know data is being passed between servers, and it's the same as calling any function within the software. Great concept, but unfortunately developed by Microsoft, so of course it's overly complex for no reason whatsoever.
Nonetheless, for larger APIs, I think I'm going withe REST from now on. Much nicer, and better to work with.
