Help me find a robust OpenID 2.0 provider!

We're looking at various SSO solutions for our organization, and I would like to suggest OpenID as a viable option, since (a) there is good consumer support in a number of web applications, and (b) it's simpler to implement than Shibboleth, which is the alternative technology. However, this requires that we find a robust OpenID provider, ideally one meeting the 2.0 specification.

The only solutions I've come across so far are:

  • Atlassian Crowd

    This looks great, although the $4000 price tag may make it a tough sell.

  • Community-ID

    This looks like an interesting idea, but I'm not sure the project quality is at a suitable level (yet). In particular, it's not clear if LDAP support actually works (which will be a requirement in our environment).

Have you implemented OpenID in your environment? What are you using? Have you selected an alternative SSO technology?

  • You may want to correct the headline of your question - "OpenAPI 2.0 provider" is confusing when you are looking for an OpenID provider. – asjo May 15 '10 at 16:00

  • For various reasons (e.g., FERPA concerns), I'm not sure that a hosted solution would be appropriate. Also, it's not clear that myOpenID can integrate with our own authentication infrastructure. – larsks Jan 26 '10 at 14:44
