Having full root-level access signifies that you'll be able to access and modify every file on a selected server, which includes all system files, and to change system settings or install server-side software which may be needed by certain scripts and even offline apps to work properly. A server is accessed at the root level with a root user, which has full privileges to do all of the aforementioned tasks. The root user can also create various other users. For security reasons, you're advised to have another account for daily tasks and to use the root account only if you actually need to perform a specific task on the hosting server. The root-level access attribute will give you full control over your server from any existing location, provided that you have the user credentials.
Full Root-level Access in Dedicated Servers
Each and every dedicated server that we supply features full root-level access, when the server is ordered without a Control Panel, or with cPanel or DirectAdmin. If you'd like to install and run heavy, resource-demanding applications and they have special requirements about the server software setting which cannot be fulfilled by a standard shared web hosting plan, our servers will be the right solution. With no Control Panel at hand, you'll be able to access the server and change its settings and the content that you upload through a console, while with cPanel and DirectAdmin, you will use a graphical interface to take care of everything related to your online content, and most server-side settings. As expected, if you get a dedicated server with no Control Panel, you can install some third-party tool manually, as long as it is compatible with the Operating System that you've chosen at signup. When you pick our Hepsia Control Panel from your order page, you will have restricted root access, yet you can still perform a lot of things using a Secure Shell console.
