No, there would not be any impact of doing it. If you encounter any problem after disabling it. Please contact our Helpdesk for assistance.
Important: The administrator's account is “admin” by default. Having a generic and easily-guessable name for a system-critical account is not recommended for security purposes, as it leaves a potential hacker with just the correct password to guess before they have full control over your system. To safeguard you against this scenario, we strongly recommend that you create another system administrator account and then disable the default "admin" account.
