Limitation on the number of Hub Sites
Is this only "Registered" Hub sites? Meaning, if a Hub is unregistered, does that free up a spot?
While I agree, 50 does seem low, at this point, we do not have a need for more than a few dozen, and that is over estimating. I may be wrong though.

This limit disappoints me greatly. I had envisaged "normal" users being able to leverage Hub functionality. My own team is a "line of service" team and as such we have over 20 different SharePoint sites, and a Hub would have been the perfect solution, but in my organisation of 150,000 people, being allocated a hub from such a small pool is never going to happen :(
- John WynneJul 26, 2018Silver ContributorHi Mark, AFAIK this won’t be a permanent limitation. Looping in Mark-Kashman for his insights into this issue.

Thanks John
I had assumed based on the current limits that the "expected" use of this functionality was going to be limited to high to mid level organisational constructs such as "finance", "HR" etc, and so also assumed that even if the limit was raised it wouldn't be a particularly large number.
Are we saying that the vision is that anyone will be able to create a hub site (to replace the old "sub site" functionality)? If so this would be great news
- John WynneJul 19, 2018Silver ContributorHi Jesse, All hub sites are registered. Each hub site is a team or communication site. The Register PowetShell command enables that site to become a hub site. Other sites then associate to that hub site. ‘Unregistered’ hub sites simply revert to being a team or communication site. There is.no unregistered hub site.
