What do you use to manage your contacts?  I am currently using the
address book in Thunderbird and am wondering if there is something that
is better.

I'm not proud of it, but I use egroupware.  I almost never actually
use the web interface, however; I rely on its CardDAV service.  It
keeps my contacts synchronized between Thunderbird on multiple computers
and operating systems (via SoGo Connector), RoundCube (via the carddav
plugin), and multiple Apple devices (used by different people in my
family).  In general I mostly interact directly with the Addressbook in
iOS; Thunderbird and Roundcube are integrated primarily to make sure I
can easily look up email addresses.

If I were starting over I would also consider ownCloud, but the security
of this stuff is all terrible.  Google's CardDAV service is probably
more secure, to everyone but Google anyway, but I prefer to host my own.
I do what I can to mitigate the security problems, and keep backups.
