Having full root-level access means that you will be able to access and update every file on a specific server, which includes all the system files, and to change system settings or set up server-side software which may be necessary for certain scripts and even offline apps to function appropriately. A server is accessed at the root level through a root user, which has full privileges to perform all of the abovementioned tasks. The root user may also create other users. For security reasons, you're advised to have one more account for everyday tasks and to use the root account only if you actually need to perform some task on the website hosting server. The root-level access attribute will give you full control of your server from any location, given that you know the user credentials.

Full Root-level Access in Dedicated Hosting

In case you choose the cPanel hosting Control Panel, you will have full root access to your new dedicated server, regardless of which of our packages you will pick during the signup process. The exact same is valid if you choose not to get a Control Panel at all. Our servers give you the possibility to run both very resource-demanding applications which are too heavy for a shared website hosting account and apps which have certain requirements as to what the software environment on your web hosting server has to be. The latter is something that cannot be achieved on a shared machine, due to the fact that no server-side software can be set up on it. The difference between the abovementioned choices is that without a Control Panel, server management can be done only through a console, while if you obtain cPanel, most of the system settings and your website content will be controlled via a graphical interface. If you pick Hepsia, that is the last Control Panel option on the registration page, you will receive a server with restricted root access.
