Having root-level access to a server means that you'll be able to view and change any file on it, which includes important system files. You can also install software which can change specific settings on your server during the process, so that the installation is possible only if you're signed in as the root user. The latter has full privileges, which means that you'll have full control over your machine whenever you want and you'll be able to perform anything you want. You may also make various other users either with the same rights or with fewer rights, depending on what you require them for - day-to-day tasks, other server administrators, etcetera. To be on the safe side, it is usually recommended to employ the root account only when you really need it and not for tasks that you can do through other accounts. You may use a web-based graphical interface or a Secure Shell console to connect to the server and to manage it at the root level.

Full Root-level Access in VPS Servers

Our Linux VPS servers feature different degrees of access, so as to give you the option to select the one you need, based on your level of experience and on what you need the server for. When you get a VPS devoid of Control Panel, you will have full root-level access and you can manage everything through a console, unless you set up a third-party instrument. The servers which are ordered with the DirectAdmin or the cPanel web hosting Control Panel also feature full root access, but most of the things which are related to your world-wide web content can be performed with a graphical interface and not a console. You can install various frameworks or media streaming software, for example, without a problem. If you get the virtual server with the Hepsia Control Panel, you may still use a Secure Shell console to connect, but the root access will be reduced. Yet, the Hepsia-equipped servers are the easiest to control.

Full Root-level Access in Dedicated Servers

When you get one of the dedicated service that we offer, you'll have full root-level access and you can do anything that you cannot do with a shared website hosting account - to modify the server-side PHP settings, to set up frameworks or media streaming software, etc. You'll be able to order the server without any hosting Control Panel and do everything with a console, unless you install 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 web sites and many system settings. In all 3 cases, you'll have full control over your server. The considerable amount of resources which you will receive makes our dedicated packages the best choice for any kind of content that you would like to have. The servers that are ordered with the Hepsia Control Panel are easier to manage, yet the root access to such a server will be limited.
