Telnet access is not offered on the shared server because of security reasons.

SSH access is offered on all of our hosting solutions.

More information on how to activate SSH on your SiteGround hosting account can be found in the SSH section of our Knowledge Base.

If your current hosting provider does not allow SSH access, you can check our SSH web hosting package. SiteGround has long experience with SSH issues and our support team will gladly help you with any SSH-related questions/problems you might have.
