Having full root-level access means that you'll be able to access and modify every file on a particular server, which includes all the system files, and to change system settings or install server-side software which may be necessary for certain scripts and even offline apps in order to function efficiently. A server is accessed at the root level via a root user, who has full privileges to perform all the abovementioned tasks. The root user may also make various other users. For safety reasons, you're advised to have another account for routine tasks and to use the root account only if you actually need to perform a specific task on your hosting server. The root-level access feature provides you with full control over your server from any existing location, provided that you have the user credentials.

Full Root-level Access in Dedicated Servers

You'll have full root-level access to your dedicated server no matter which plan you choose throughout the registration process, as long as the server is ordered with cPanel or DirectAdmin, or without web hosting Control Panel at all. In all of these three cases, you will be able to change any part of the software environment in any way you find fit, that makes our server packages suitable for resource-demanding applications with specific requirements which cannot be covered if you use a shared web hosting account. The main difference between these options is that when you select cPanel or DirectAdmin, you'll have a web-based graphical interface to control a variety of server-side options and any site content which you create or upload, while if you order the server devoid of Control Panel, you will have to perform everything using a Secure Shell console or to install a Control Panel of your own liking, if it is compatible with the Operating System that you have chosen during the registration process. With the third Control Panel option that you're able to choose on our order page - Hepsia, the root access is limited.
