Welcome bashari!
 
I will say this and maybe some of the other Forum Members can reply to this as well ..but The cloud-based behavioral monitoring of Webroot SecureAnywhere Antivirus (2014) is wildly different from almost any other product, and it's just not compatible with many test setups. As a result, it hardly gets tested at all. That's a shame, because it's amazingly tiny and scans amazingly fast.
 
 
Hope that helps!

Many, if not most, benchmarks/tests that compare different AV's are simply not designed in a way that allows WSA to be tested correctly.  Webroot is working with some of those reviewers to try to develop tests that can test WSA and the competition on an even field, but it just isn't easy.
 
In a way it is comparing apples to oranges: everyone else on traditional definitions based technology vs. WSA on Cloud based.

If you look here you can see that WSA is tops on benchmarks tests: https://community.webroot.com/t5/Community-Announcements/Webroot-SecureAnywhere-Tops-PassMark-Bench-Test-s-once-again/td-p/156865
