        UniFi is entirely designed to be multi-site and multi-tenant.

        Spin up a a UniFi controller on Vultr or wherever.
        Go into CloudKey #1 and migrate
        Go to Cloud instance and import the backup from the migration.
        Complete the migration.
        Your devices will just show up because that is how the Migration works.
        Add specific users to this site only in the controller. Even Clients!

        Now repeat the process from the next client.
        Add access to new and existing users as appropriate.

          That sounds pretty sweet. I'll take a look into doing this starting next week.

          So with some SaaS, the client has their own tenant and then I just setup delegated access for us to be able to manage their tenant. I'm assuming it's similar, rather than a "site" being treated like a physical location, or extension to a core instance like a hub-spoke of an office headquarters and branch offices?

            Are you running your controller on something like Fedora Server?

              Just took a peak at this migration video. Looks dead simple, as you already pointed out. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oUJPhLBFXAw

                    Also, Windows and MacOS, but you're not going to be spinning up an instance of either of those on Vultr lol

                      We get free Azure hosting for something of this (smaller) size, otherwise I'd go with Vultr. I'll probably just throw up Ubuntu.

                          Any gotchas between the two, speaking specifically to the controller in terms of stability or anything else worth noting?

                            No, just personal preference.
