Having full root-level access means that you will be able to access and customize each file on a particular server, in addition to all the system files, and to change system settings or set up server-side software that may be necessary for specific scripts and even offline applications in order to function properly. A server is accessed at the root level via a root user, who has full privileges to do any of the abovementioned tasks. The root user may also generate other users. For safety reasons, you are advised to have another account for everyday tasks and to use the root account only if you actually need to perform a particular task on the website hosting server. The root-level access attribute will give you full control over your server from any kind of location, given that you have the user credentials.
Full Root-level Access in Dedicated Servers
In case you select the cPanel website hosting Control Panel, you'll have full root access to your new dedicated server, no matter which of our plans you'll select throughout the signup process. The same is valid if you decide not to get a Control Panel at all. Our servers will provide you with the chance to run both very resource-demanding apps that are too heavy for a shared website hosting account and apps that have certain requirements as to what the software environment on your web hosting server should be. The latter is something which can't be achieved on a shared machine, because no server-side software can be set up on it. The difference between the abovementioned options is that without a Control Panel, server management can be done only from a console, whereas if you acquire cPanel, most of the system settings as well as your site content will be controlled via a graphical interface. If you pick Hepsia, which is the last Control Panel option on the order page, you'll get a server with limited root access.
