Having full root-level access signifies that you'll be able to access and modify any file on a selected server, in addition to all of the system files, and to change system settings or set up server-side software that may be required by certain scripts and even offline apps in order to function efficiently. A server is accessed at the root level through a root user, which has full privileges to do any of the abovementioned things. The root user can also generate various other users. For security reasons, you are advised to have one more account for routine tasks and to use the root account only if you actually need to perform a task on your hosting server. The root-level access function will provide you with full control over your server from almost any location, provided that you have the user credentials.
Full Root-level Access in Dedicated Hosting
Each dedicated server that we supply gives you full root-level access, if the server is ordered without a Control Panel, or with cPanel or DirectAdmin. If you'd like to set up and run heavy, resource-demanding apps and they have specific requirements about the server software setting which can't be fulfilled by a regular shared hosting plan, our servers are the optimal solution. Without Control Panel at hand, you'll be able to access the server and change its settings and the content that you upload with a console, whereas with cPanel and DirectAdmin, you'll have a graphical interface to manage everything related to your web content, and most server-side settings. Needless to say, when you get a dedicated server with no Control Panel, you can always set up a third-party tool manually, as long as it is compatible with the Operating System that you've selected at signup. When you choose our Hepsia Control Panel on the order page, you'll have restricted root access, however you can still do quite a lot of things using a Secure Shell console.
