Antivirus Market Shares 2015

These statistics only reflect data collected from devices running OPSWAT Gear so these statistics don't reflect an accurate, or complete survey. That being said, I was still quite surprised at some of these statistics. I thought Bitdefender would still reflect a much higher percent of the market in this survey. Webroot was so low that it was filed under other when measured by Vendor, and by Product. Eset was filed under other by product, but was fairly high for a paid product when measured by Vendor Share. Are there any other sources that track the market share for antivirus? There are some other good statistics in this survey for those interested in knowing devices by country in this survey sample. This survey is by OPSWAT, and their webpage link is at the bottom of this post.
