Having full root-level access means that you will be able to access and modify any file on a selected server, in addition to all the system files, and to change system settings or set up server-side software which may be needed by specific scripts and even offline apps to function properly. A server is accessed at the root level via a root user, which has full privileges to perform any of the aforementioned things. Your root user can also create various other users. For safety reasons, you are advised to have a different account for day-to-day tasks and to use the root account only if you actually need to do some task on your server. The root-level access attribute will provide you with full control over your server from any kind of location, as long as you know the user credentials.

Full Root-level Access in VPS Servers

The Linux VPS plans which we provide are suitable for many different purposes, depending on what you want to install and run on them and what experience you have. When your server is ordered with the cPanel or the DirectAdmin web hosting Control Panel, you will have full root access and will be able to control your web content through a graphical interface, whereas you can still install server-side applications which may be needed by your Internet sites and even by offline applications, including VoIP programs, media encoding software, various frameworks, and many others. Devoid of Control Panel, you'll also have full root-level access, but you will have to do everything using a console. When you choose to use our tailor-made Hepsia hosting Control Panel, there're certain root access restrictions, but this configuration is the easiest to control. That way, you'll be able to pick the virtual server plan which you need.

Full Root-level Access in Dedicated Servers

If you get one of the dedicated web hosting plans that we provide, you will have full root-level access and you can do anything that you can't do using a shared website 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 any web hosting Control Panel and do everything with a console, unless you set up some third-party tool, or you can order it with cPanel or DirectAdmin and use a web-based graphical interface to take care of your sites and many system settings. In all three cases, you will have complete control over the server. The tremendous amount of system resources which you'll have makes our dedicated packages a great choice for any type of content that you'd like to have. The servers that are ordered with the Hepsia Control Panel are easier to maintain, however the root access to such a machine will be limited.
