Not an expert, but I was paid to write OCaml and Haskell for several years. There are pros and cons but my conclusion is that Haskell has cool features but is too complex. I can iterate faster in OCaml, with the same safety benefits. Learning curve is also less steep for beginners. I think it's also more suitable for programming in the large thanks to the module system.

I'm pretty sad that OCaml isn't more popular than it is.
