Heimdal has more features. I'd say that depends on the features you want. Unless my information is out of date, MIT KDCs support policies where you can setup groups of principals with different security requirements (like say, students, faculty, staff, hosts, services, etc.) and then customize password length, strength, expiration and other settings for each of these groups. In Heimdal this needs to be set on each principal which makes it really annoying to change after initial account creation.
