Jun 4, 2013 at 7:38 comment added Name My comment above is wrong because according to the link @Gerry-Myerson sent, the symmetric group $S_3$ has $6$ subgroups and the cyclic group $\mathbb{Z}/{6\mathbb{Z}}$ has $4$ subgroups.

Jun 4, 2013 at 5:09 comment added user13040 It seems that elementary abelian $p$-groups dominate. Since these groups have $\Theta (p^{\frac{(\log n)^2}{4}}) = \Theta(n^{c \log n})$, it is plausible that some sub-exponential bound of this sort holds for all finite groups, but I am not aware of any relevant work.

Jun 3, 2013 at 22:13 comment added Name It seems that among all groups of order $n$, the abelian group whose $p$-sylow subgroups are $p$-elementary has the largest number of subgroups and it is not difficult task to count them.

Jun 3, 2013 at 21:21 comment added Stefan Kohl Yes. -- You can take $f(n) := 2^n$, which is the total number of subsets of $G$.
