Having root-level access to your server means that you will be able to view and modify any file on it, which includes important system files. You can also install software which can change particular settings on the server during the process, so that the installation can be done only if you are logged in as the root user. The latter has full privileges, which means that you'll have full control over your machine whenever you want and you will be able to perform anything you need. You can also generate various other users either with identical rights or with fewer rights, depending on what you want them for - daily tasks, other server admins, etc. To be on the safe side, it is generally recommended to employ the root account only when you actually need it and not for tasks which can be done using other accounts. You can use a web-based graphical interface or a Secure Shell console in order to connect to the server and to control it at the root level.

Full Root-level Access in Dedicated Servers

Each and every dedicated server that we provide includes full root-level access, if the server is ordered with no Control Panel, or with cPanel or DirectAdmin. If you'd like to install and run heavy, resource-demanding apps and they have special requirements regarding the server software environment which cannot be fulfilled by a standard shared website hosting plan, our servers are the best solution. Without Control Panel at hand, you will be able to access the server and change its settings as well as the content that you upload using a console, while with cPanel and DirectAdmin, you will use a graphical interface to manage everything related to your online content, as well as the majority of server-side settings. Needless to say, if you get a dedicated server devoid of Control Panel, you may always set up some third-party software instrument manually, as long as it supports the OS that you have chosen at registration. If you select our Hepsia Control Panel on your order page, you'll have restricted root access, but you will still be able to do a lot of things through a Secure Shell console.
