Having full root-level access means that you can access and update any kind of file on a selected server, which includes all of the system files, and to change system settings or install server-side software which may be necessary for certain scripts and even offline apps to work appropriately. A server is accessed at the root level with a root user, who has full privileges to perform all the aforementioned tasks. The root user can also make various other users. For safety reasons, you are advised to have a different account for daily tasks and to use the root account only if you actually need to perform a particular task on the server. The root-level access attribute provides you with full control of your server from any location, given that you know the user credentials.
