Hub site hierarchy
If you want all of them to have all modern capabilites, then you have to ”move them”.
One way is to “modernize” your Customer-level and connect them to a “sales hub”. Then everything is kind off connected. But you won’t have the modern capabilities in the subsites as Teams/Groups and so on.

Nicklas Lundqvist With modern capabilities you mean the O365 group things, right? So a MS Team, Group Calendar and so on?
Well, those I do not need really. We use that in other scenarios. But I am just concerned that in some years it will not be possible anymore to create subsites... could this happen?- Nicklas LundqvistDec 06, 2019Iron Contributor
Exactly those. And for your other question, not being able to create subsites in the future. Since Microsoft is moving to node based “thinking” there is a chance/risk that subsites will not be possible in the future.
I think that’s why they are aiming on delivering the possibility to nest hub sites. I also think there’s a roadmap entry about that.
My “gut feeling” is that you should try to stay clear of subsites as a “navigation tool”. But then I don’t have all the insights in the roadmap of sharepoint sites either 🙂
Also, there is no tool (natively) to move a subsite to its own collection in a good way at least meaning if you use them you might end up in a rather tedious manual work later on.

Nicklas Lundqvist Okay, thanks for the explanation. I will see that we will go await from the subsite approach then. But the access to subsites will probably stay, so I do not have to migrate my thousands of subsites to flat hierarchies?
Also: This would generate thousands of modern pages - like 20.000 site collections. That scales well in O365 now?
