It's that depending on your specific demands? The way I interpret multi-tentant LS is not offering the capabilities you're looking for. You will end up with one installation per customer. You can check the global settings of LimeSurvey and ask yourself, if these settings can be consistent for every customer.
If not, then you'll need a separate installation.

User permission is lacking in some areas. Even for one company.

Not out of the box. And I would be surprised to see something like this soon.
The professional hosting service here on limesurvey.org would be a perfect candidate to use multi-tenant. If someone has done some modifications in that area, then LimeSurvey GmbH.
But as far as I know they use separate installations with separate databases.
