Counting finite groups up to isomorphism is often quite challenging since there are many non-isomorphic finite groups which cannot be distinguished using standard group theory methods (like structure theory or representation theory). I will give an overview of what is known about the number of isomorphism types of finite groups is various classes, and I will describe recent work with James Wilson where we construct many nonisomorphic subgroups of groups like SL_n(F_q),
