Having root-level access to a server means that you can view and modify any file on it, which includes essential system files. You can also set up software which can update specific settings on the server during the process, so that the installation can be performed only if you're logged in as the root user. The aforementioned has full privileges, which means that you will have full control over the machine whenever you want and you'll be able to do anything you need. You may also make other users either with the same rights or with fewer rights, depending on what you require them for - daily tasks, other server administrators, etcetera. To be on the safe side, it is usually recommended to use the root account only when you really need it and not for tasks that can be done using other accounts. You may use a web-based graphical interface or a Secure Shell console in order to connect with the server and to manage it at the root level.

Full Root-level Access in VPS Hosting

The Linux VPS hosting packages which we provide are appropriate for various different purposes, based on what you'd like to install and run on them and the experience that you have. If your server features the cPanel or the DirectAdmin website hosting Control Panel, you will have full root access and will be able to manage your Internet content using a graphical interface, whereas you may still set up server-side applications that may be required by your web sites and even by offline applications, for example VoIP software, 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 through a console. When you choose to use our in-house built Hepsia web hosting Control Panel, there'll be certain root access limitations, but this configuration is the most convenient to manage. In this way, you'll be able to select the virtual server package which you really need.

Full Root-level Access in Dedicated Web Hosting

In case you select the cPanel or the DirectAdmin website hosting Control Panel, you will have full root access to your new dedicated server, no matter which of our packages you will select during the registration process. The same is valid when you choose not to use a Control Panel at all. All of our servers will provide you with the opportunity to run both really resource-demanding apps that are too heavy for a regular shared website hosting account and apps that have specific requirements as to what the software environment on the website hosting server has to be. The latter is something which can't be achieved on a shared machine, due to the fact that no server-side software can be installed on it. The difference between the abovementioned solutions is that without a Control Panel, server management can be done only through a console, while if you obtain cPanel or DirectAdmin, most of the system settings as well as your site content can be managed via a graphical interface. When you choose Hepsia, which is the last Control Panel option on the order page, you will get a server with restricted root access.
