Definitely. Product catalog information as a whole doesn't change often. Price and availability does. With retail catalogs you often do a full reindex of the data in your master catalog and then run partials to account for price/availability if you don't do that in realtime using filters. Since the system of record is not the search index, Elastic is often not a good solution here.

Also, relevancy in retail is often influenced by other factors that cannot easily be implemented in Elastic. TFIDF/BM25 search is available in both platforms, but you may also weigh in other factors such as relationships with the vendor, stock on hand, or other ML techniques that are more easily implemented in SOLR.
