Having full root-level access means that you can access and change every file on a selected server, including all the system files, and to change system settings or set up server-side software that may be necessary for certain scripts and even offline applications in order to function appropriately. A server is accessed at the root level through a root user, which has full privileges to perform all of the abovementioned things. Your root user can also generate other users. For security reasons, you are advised to have a different account for everyday tasks and to use the root account only if you actually need to perform some task on your server. The root-level access function offers you full control over your server from almost any location, given that you have the user credentials.

Full Root-level Access in VPS Hosting

Our Linux VPS hosting include different degrees of access, in order to give you the option to choose the one you need, according to your level of experience and on what you'll need the server for. When you purchase a VPS devoid of Control Panel, you'll have full root-level access and you'll take care of everything through a console, unless you set up some third-party tool. The servers which are ordered with the cPanel website hosting Control Panel also come with full root access, but most of the things that are related to your web content can be performed using a graphical interface and not a console. You'll be able to install various frameworks or media streaming software, for instance, without a problem. If you order the virtual website hosting server with the Hepsia Control Panel, you can still use a Secure Shell console to connect, however, the root access will be limited. Yet, the Hepsia-equipped servers are the simplest to manage.

Full Root-level Access in Dedicated Web Hosting

If you choose the cPanel hosting Control Panel, you will have full root access to your new dedicated server, no matter which of our plans you will pick during the signup process. The exact same is valid when you decide not to use a Control Panel at all. Our servers will provide you with the possibility to run both very resource-demanding applications which are too heavy for a shared web hosting account and applications that have certain requirements as to what the software environment on the hosting server should be. The latter is something that cannot be achieved on a shared machine, as no server-side software can be set up on it. The difference between the abovementioned options is that without having a Control Panel, server management can be done only through a console, whereas if you acquire cPanel, most system settings and your web content will be managed through a graphical interface. When you pick Hepsia, that is the last Control Panel option on the registration page, you'll have a server with restricted root access.
