If you have root-level access to a hosting server, it means that you will have full control over it. That is to say, you can install any server-side app whatever the changes that it'll make to the software setting on your server, and you'll be able to both access and customize any kind of file, including system files, and change various settings. This can be done by connecting to the server as a root user who has full privileges to perform all these things and to generate other users, which includes users that also have full privileges. This connection can be established using a web-based graphical interface or a Secure Shell console. For security reasons, it is recommended that you create one more user for your daily work and use the root user only when you need to modify the server or to set up software which may be needed by a script-driven app that you would like to run.

Full Root-level Access in Dedicated Servers

If you get one of the dedicated web hosting plans that we offer, you will have full root-level access and you'll be able to do anything that you are unable to do with a shared hosting account - to update the server-side PHP settings, to install frameworks or media streaming software, and the like. You can order the server without web hosting Control Panel and do everything with a console, unless you set up some third-party instrument, or you can order it with cPanel or DirectAdmin and use a web-based graphical interface to control your sites and many system settings. In all 3 cases, you'll have full control over your server. The considerable amount of system resources which you will have makes our dedicated packages a great choice for any type of content that you want to have. The servers which are ordered with the Hepsia Control Panel are much easier to take care of, yet the root access to such a server is limited.
