What works

Each part of the service, checked from Syria.

DownloadsFails

Landing pageWorks

The ReSharper website and its download page opened normally from Syria.

Sign-upWorks

A JetBrains account could be registered from Syria, and the tester went on to use their own account from there.

Sign-inWorks

Signing in to a JetBrains account worked from Syria; the account settings, including the payment methods page, opened while signed in.

PaymentFails

Paying for ReSharper from Syria failed: after Syria was confirmed as the country at the JetBrains store checkout, it refused with "Sorry, purchases in Syrian Arab Republic are restricted." A payment method could not be added in the account either, because Syria is missing from its country list.

UpgradeFails

Moving to a paid ReSharper subscription was not possible from Syria, because the JetBrains store refused the purchase at checkout.
