Having full root-level access signifies that you will be able to access and change any kind of file on a specific server, in addition to all of the system files, and to change system settings or install server-side software which may be necessary for specific scripts and even offline apps in order to work efficiently. A server is accessed at the root level via a root user, which has full privileges to perform all the abovementioned things. Your root user can also create other users. For security reasons, you're advised to have another account for daily tasks and to use the root account only if you actually need to do some task on the website hosting server. The root-level access attribute gives you full control of your server from any existing location, given that you know the user credentials.
