Quote -  Also, your shadows might be turned too high. Under the light parameter tab look for "Shadow". Be default, it is set to "1" which is unnaturally high. Sunlight has a Shadow of .912.  The lower you set it, the dimmer the shadow will appear in a render. Play with that and see what you'll like.

I dont recommand this "tweak" if you use IBL or IDL or a fill light, only with one light source

Quote - On the second tab of the light is Properties. On it you'll find the blur radius. For Ray-traced shadows it's set at "0) which means hard-edged shadows (Which occur in a hard vacuum!). The higher the blur, the softer the edge is.

As i can see in the picture, shadowmap are used, i agree with you raytracing shadows take better results !
