Locoscript was incredibly slow (I gather Locoscript 2 fixed that, somewhat), kept the OS at arms' length, lacked basic functionality (no word count? No multi-document editing!), and so on. On the plus side: it was very easy to learn as a starter package. I abandoned it for Protext (on the PCW) then migrated PC-wards ...
I gather there was a vastly more expensive and powerful version of Locoscript for law firms that came first, before the cut-down Amstrad thing.
