Landing pageWorks

The main SonarSource website opened normally from Syria, with its product, company, resources and documentation pages loading.

Sign-upFails

Sign-inFails

SonarSource's account login would not open from Syria: choosing to take a Learning Center course sent the browser to the login service, which returned an "Access denied" error page.

PaymentNot checked
UpgradeFails

Syria was missing from the country list on SonarSource's sales contact forms, including the one for its enterprise plan, so a request for a paid offering could only be sent by choosing another country. The partnership and resource download forms left Syria out as well.

Many international services blocked access to Syria due to previous sanctions and compliance policies. Even as sanctions are being reviewed, some companies have not yet restored access. Unblock Syria tracks these services and advocates for change.

You can help by voting on this page to show demand, sharing it on social media, and contacting SonarQube directly to request they restore access for Syrian users.
