One of the major attractions of a dedicated server is that it is generally completely under the control of the customer. Therefore, it can be rebooted when needed and can also be completely customized in terms of the software it runs. Customized software can be very important for a number of reasons, but even if the software is off-the-shelf, not all VPS and shared-web providers give their customers carte blanche to install and run additional software. In fact, most shared hosting providers have limits to what can be installed in terms of resource allocation, and VPS providers may not always give 100% control of their virtual modules to customers. In short, dedicated servers are usually able to run anything that their hardware can handle.
