I use all-season tires and have found that winter performance really depends on the manufacturer.
I had Goodyear tires on my car when I got it years ago and thought that winter driving was okay (nothing spectacular). I got some Yokohama all-seasons on my car for a couple of winters after that and absolutely hated them. Almost no traction at all during the winter or when it was wet, but great when dry during the summer. I've since gone back to the Goodyear tires and found that the winter driving performance is back to being decent (but much improved over the Yokohamas).
