Bit Defender of course, is better and cheaper as trusting in much more expensive new antivirus programs
The results by all two programs looks like the same. With the difference that BitDefender have no support and Ikarus have a support. For the support I pay. For no support or a team with just a fluent English and not enough detail knowledge what they sale. I will not touch the free trial version.
NOD32 if you have a NON profit company (confirmation paper required) ~ 23 USD, 1 year updates. Is below 20 EUR. If use a pirated Security product must be crazy.
Ikarus have much better detection than BitDefender and have a lot os different sigantures:
