Having root-level access to your server signifies that you can view and modify any file on it, which includes important system files. You can also set up software that can change particular settings on the server throughout the, so the installation can be performed only if you're signed in as the root user. The latter has full privileges, i.e. you'll have full control over your machine whenever you want and you will be able to perform anything you want. You may also generate additional users either with identical rights or with fewer rights, depending on what you need them for - day-to-day tasks, other server admins, etcetera. To be on the safe side, it's generally recommended to use the root account only when you actually need it and not for tasks that you can do via other accounts. You may use a web-based graphical interface or a Secure Shell console to connect to the server and to manage it at the root level.
