Have been protected against antivirus for the past two years with BidDefender. It is time to renew or purchase another software. I decided to look at several rating sources, to see if there is a consensus as to which is the best. One rater compared 10 software and gave its number 1 rating to one of them. The second rater did not even include this number 1 in its top ten.
How can I rely on any particular rating service, when the raters cannot agree on what should be in the top 10? My problem, then, is who should I rely on, when looking at ratings?

If Consumer Reports gave a current rating, since I trust Consumer Reports, I might just go with its rating. But, there is no recent rating by CR. How do I find a trustworthy rating service?
