Exfat-utils or exfatprogs?

what to use and why manjaro default is esfat-utils?

Hello :slightly_smiling_face:!
exfatprogs is a re-branding of exfat-utils by SAMSUNG:

This means that exfatprogs is the newer version and you shoud probably use exfatprogs over exfat-utils as it will provide more functionality in the future.
If you have any further questions, feel free to reply.
