Having full root-level access signifies that you will be able to access and update any file on a selected server, in addition to all system files, and to change system settings or install server-side software that may be necessary for specific scripts and even offline applications to function appropriately. A server is accessed at the root level with a root user, which has full privileges to perform any of the aforementioned tasks. Your root user can also create other users.

The root-level access function will provide you with full control over your server from any existing location, as long as you have the user credentials.
