MatConvNet is a third party toolbox which implements Convolutional Neural Networks for computer vision applications.

CNNs in MATLAB neural network toolbox are a part of MathWork's product suite. Since the newer release, the neural network toolbox is highly optimized for Deep learning and computer vision applications.

I am not entirely sure of the difference in algorithm design of MatConvNet and MATLAB's internal neural network toolbox but the only major difference I see is that MatCovNet is not a MathWorks' product.
