What's wrong with Splunk? Honest question.

Price, mostly. It's good, but there are alternatives that aren't as ridiculously expensive.

Any alternative that you'd recommend? Thanks.

ELK stack - Elasticsearch, Logstash, and Kibana. The whole stack is opensource :)

Interesting, but it's not a SaaS. It doesn't look like a direct rival to Splunk.

It is a direct rival to Splunk :) They do very similar things however IMHO Splunk is the better solution right now. There are LaaS companies that use ELK if you need a cloud solution - Loggly is the first one that springs to mind and I think another is LogSene.
