Well coming from personal experience, Avast uses less resources. Also, they are quite amazing at catching and deleting viruses. I have had no viruses on my computer and I even check it with some special software.

The idea of a paid subscription to a anti-virus company is for very important documents against certain new attacks. But to say that the free versions of software is not great against attacks is a very ignorant thing to say.

So, on the basis of which one to get, I would go with Avast anti-virus.

Avast! One of the lightest and best Anti-virus programs I've used. Panda Cloud AV is also very light and detects a ton, though for it to be effective it requires an Internet connection.

thanks everyone for the comments!
I'm personally using Avast Pro Ver. 5.0 and works great, sometimes it catches stuff!
