Still, its collision detection and other features are mote state-of-the-art then ODE, which has better constraint support at the moment.

Havok has a fat manual (with years of experience) with tips how to improve your simulation (both quality and performance) and great support. Havok is a great library if you can afford it, its GPU acceleration, quality and continuous collision detection is amazing.
Maybe support is the most important? or I'm wrong?
You are right, support is important, but ODE has good support through the mailing list. I'm optimizing Bullet for CELL architecture, but it will not be as fast as Havok.

Let's concentrate on havok for example.
What are the advantages? no tricky parameters? easy of use? performance? support?
