In a review of four word processors, ''[[The Transactor]]'' in May 1986 praised SpeedScript as "extremely sophisticated", citing its large text buffer, logical cursor navigation, and [[undo]] command. While criticizing its lack of [[typographic alignment|right justification]], the magazine concluded that SpeedScript was not only "an easy winner" among budget-priced word processors, but also "a serious contender even when compared with the higher priced programs".<ref name="bose" />
 
SpeedScript was sufficiently popular to receive coverage in reference works, such as the "Wordprocessing Reference Guide" of [[Karl Hildon]]'s ''Inner Space Anthology''<ref name="inner" /> and [[Mitchell Waite]]'s ''The Official Book for the Commodore 128''.<ref name="128book">{{cite book | chapterurlchapter-url=https://archive.org/stream/The_Official_Book_for_the_Commodore_128#page/n87/mode/2up | title=The Official Book for the Commodore 128 Personal Computer | publisher=Howard W.
