As someone who tried to get into it :
- the syntax is not great. I've heard it's one of the reasons why F# was born
- not many people use Ocaml, which makes it hard to find help
- not many good resources. The official documentation is really hard to parse and there isn't much besides it and the reference book (which reads more like a book than a reference).
- no good ways to debug, print objects, test, etc.
- no one seems to agree on what is the standard library or the correct packages to import (for example there are several Option package)
