Having full root-level access signifies that you will be able to access and update each file on a specific server, including all system files, and to change system settings or set up server-side software which may be needed by certain scripts and even offline apps in order to function efficiently. A server is accessed at the root level via a root user, which has full privileges to do all the aforementioned tasks. The root user may also make various other users. For security reasons, you're advised to have one more account for daily tasks and to use the root account only if you actually need to do a task on your hosting server. The root-level access function will provide you with full control of your server from almost any location, provided that you know the user credentials.

Full Root-level Access in VPS Servers

The Linux VPS web hosting plans which we supply are suitable for different purposes, depending on what you want to set up and run on them and what experience you have. When the server is ordered with the cPanel web hosting Control Panel, you'll have full root access and will be able to control your online content through a graphical interface, while you may still install server-side applications which may be needed for your sites and even by offline apps, for example VoIP programs, media encoding software, various frameworks, and many others. Without any Control Panel, you'll also have full root-level access, but you will have to do everything using a console. If you choose to use our custom Hepsia hosting Control Panel, there'll be certain root access restrictions, but this configuration is the easiest to control. That way, you will be able to select the virtual server plan which you really need.

Full Root-level Access in Dedicated Servers

Each and every dedicated server that we provide gives you full root-level access, if the server is ordered with no Control Panel, or with cPanel. If you wish to set up and run heavy, resource-demanding apps and they have special requirements with regard to the server software environment that can't be fulfilled by a conventional shared web hosting package, our servers are the best solution. Without any Control Panel at hand, you'll be able to access the server and customize its settings and the content that you upload with a console, while with cPanel you'll have a graphical interface to take care of everything related to your web content, as well as most server-side settings. Of course, if you get a dedicated server devoid of Control Panel, you can set up some third-party software tool manually, as long as it is compatible with the OS that you have chosen at signup. When you pick the Hepsia Control Panel from your order page, you'll have restricted root access, but you'll still be able to perform many different things through a Secure Shell console.
