All web hosting accounts are managed through a CP and irrespective of the brand of the latter, you can always find a File Manager tool, which lets you look into the files that you have uploaded inside the Internet hosting account and to perform basic operations with them, such as moving, copying or deleting. Based on the specific tool, there can be more advanced features also, such as management of permissions and archives. Several Control Panels are easier to use than others and so are their File Manager sections. Considering that that's the primary tool that you will use to manage your files, it's essential to check in advance what options it offers and if it'll suit your needs, because a hard-to-use File Manager may be a burden and will make managing your online presence more difficult.
