The one thing Splunk has going for it over ES is the amount of resources it requires to work at scale.
I needed 12 ES boxes for every one Splunk box to handle the 100MB/day log load of my system, and even then they ran at a high load and searches often failed, and in some cases it took hours for the indexer to catch up.
