What works

Each part of the service, checked from Syria.

Core useWorks

Acronis True Image was downloaded and installed, the trial with Acronis Cloud storage was activated, and a backup to Acronis Cloud completed successfully. The reporter says restoring files also worked.

Landing pageWorks

The Acronis home page and other site pages loaded normally from Syria.

Sign-upWorks

Creating an Acronis account worked with another country selected, since Syria is not in the country list. The account was created and, the reporter says, the activation link led into the account.

Sign-inWorks

Signing in to Acronis from the True Image app worked, and the app opened in trial mode.

PaymentFails

Buying a True Image plan redirected to store.acronis.com, which showed "Sorry, you have been blocked: You are unable to access cleverbridge.com".

UpgradeFails

Upgrading to a paid True Image plan is not possible from Syria, because the Acronis store checkout was blocked with "Sorry, you have been blocked".
