Having full root-level access signifies that you can access and customize any file on a particular server, which includes all system files, and to change system settings or install server-side software which may be required by specific scripts and even offline applications to function efficiently. A server is accessed at the root level via a root user, who has full privileges to do any of the aforementioned tasks. Your root user can also create other users. For safety reasons, you're advised to have one more account for everyday tasks and to use the root account only if you actually need to perform some task on your hosting server. The root-level access feature 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 purchase a VPS servers from us, you will have full root-level access in 3 cases - if the server comes with no hosting Control Panel at all, or if you select cPanel during the order process. In the first case, you can modify each part of the system via a Secure Shell console, while in the second, you'll still be able to use SSH in order to connect and to make adjustments, yet you'll also have a graphical interface you can use to take care of your world wide web content and most of the system settings. The root access makes our virtual server plans a very good choice when you need to run any software that you cannot install in a regular shared hosting account. With the last Control Panel option - Hepsia, you will be able to connect through SSH and to manage the content on your server, yet the root access rights are more restricted.
Full Root-level Access in Dedicated Servers
If you get one of the dedicated servers which we provide, you'll have full root-level access and you will be able to do anything that you can't do with a shared website hosting account - to update the server-side PHP settings, to install frameworks or media streaming software, and many others. You may order the server without website hosting Control Panel and do everything through a console, unless you set up some third-party tool, or you can order it with cPanel and use a web-based graphical interface to control your Internet sites and many system settings. In all three cases, you'll have full control over the server. The significant amount of resources which you will get makes our dedicated packages the best choice for any kind of content that you'd like to have. The servers which are ordered with the Hepsia Control Panel are easier to take care of, but the root access to such a server is limited.
