Having full root-level access signifies that you can access and modify every file on a selected server, in addition to all system files, and to change system settings or install server-side software that may be needed by specific scripts and even offline apps to function properly. A server is accessed at the root level with a root user, which has full privileges to perform any of the aforementioned tasks. Your root user can also make 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 do a task on the server. The root-level access attribute will provide you with full control over your server from almost any location, given that you have the user credentials.

Full Root-level Access in VPS Servers

When you get a VPS servers from our company, you'll have full root-level access in three cases - if the server comes with no website hosting Control Panel at all, or when you select cPanel during the order process. In the first case, you'll be able to modify any part of the system via a Secure Shell console, while in the second, you'll still be able to use SSH to connect and to make adjustments, yet you will also have a graphical interface you can use to take care of your web content and almost all the system settings. The root access makes our virtual server plans a very good choice if you would like to run any software which you can not set up in an ordinary shared website hosting account. With the last Control Panel option - Hepsia, you will be able to connect by way of SSH and to control the content on your server, but the root access rights are more limited.

Full Root-level Access in Dedicated Servers

Each and every dedicated server that we provide includes full root-level access, when the server is ordered with no Control Panel, or with cPanel. If you wish to install and run heavy, resource-demanding apps and they have specific requirements regarding the server software environment that can't be fulfilled by a regular shared hosting package, our servers are the best solution. With no Control Panel at hand, you can access the server and change its settings as well as the content which you upload using a console, while with cPanel you will have a graphical interface to take care of everything related to your web content, and also most server-side settings. As expected, if you get a dedicated server with no Control Panel, you may always install a third-party instrument manually, as long as it is compatible with the OS that you've chosen at registration. When you choose our Hepsia Control Panel on the order page, you will have restricted root access, but you will still be able to do a number of things through a Secure Shell console.
